KHONSA, 11 Sep: Tirap Deputy Commissioner Badonlum Tawsik visited Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Girls' Residential School in Bogapani near here on Friday and took stock of the infrastructure and other challenges faced by the institution.
During his interaction with the headmaster and teaching staff of the school, Headmaster Nyamwang Khetey apprised the DC of the urgent need for the construction of a new kitchen-cum-dining hall to ensure proper arrangements for the students and staff.
