A pleasant surprise awaited the youths as Sir Alfred Arthur, MLA of Ukhrul Constituency, crashed the event with a powerful and encouraging speech followed by performing the Rolling Stones' all time hit "Dead Flowers". The evening came to life as various artists, dancers, rock bands and comedians took to stage before wrapping up with Youths' Dream Speech, mass signature campaign and joint Memorandum submission to Shri Alfred Arthur, MLA 44A/C, for construction of park with open air amphitheatre easily accessible to all.
Kudos to organisers, sponsors and all participants who made the day worth every step. Until next year, Godspeed!
