Clogged waterways and drains Plastics, plastics everywhere

Commendable move and should be noted. That is the decision of student body, Democratic Students’ Alliance, Manipur (DESAM) to ban plastics in the State. Would be more meaningful if other student organisations too back the stand of DESAM and see what they can do to neutralise the negative impact of plastic carry bags, not only to human health but also the environment. Perhaps this is where the All Naga Students’ Association, Manipur may extend its hand of co-operation and carry out a similar campaign in the districts where its writ runs large.

We usually used to give a damn to what the elders day. Most particularly when we were kids, our elders used to shower upon us with WOW (Words of wisdom) but we took them as some kind of unwanted noise or cacophony of infidels, taking their words for granted. We used to stumble across WOW every whence and thence even when we reached the peak of adolescence.

Leadership management

Introduction: We are lucky to have a bundle of great people who have walked the way of Leadership and Management. Our work perhaps is to learn and imbibe those great traits for our present situation allowing some pertinent adaptations and openness for innovation. Abraham Maslow (1908-1970) was and is one of the world´s most esteemed experts on human behaviour and motivation. He is most famous for his work in the area of humanistic psychology but he has also another kind of legacy for us.
