Recognizing as “a visionary leader with extraordinary courage and strategic foresight,” the Governor said that “Dr Ao pulled the Nagas out of a bloody chaos, united the Naga family in one politico-administrative entity – the Nagaland State, the 16th State of the Indian Union, with uniquely special constitutional dispensation safeguarding the identity and interests of the Nagas and laid a rock solid foundation for the future of its people according to their own genius.”
“On this solemn occasion, let us commit ourselves to build a Nagaland of Dr Ao’s dream – a happy and prosperous state in which our youth, free from every kind of fear, apprehension or inhibition, will blossom in an eco-system of unlimited opportunities for growth and fulfillment,” he stated.
