Speaking as the guest of honor, N. Jamonger Ao, encouraged the youths to explore new opportunities and to cultivate the habit of learning new things with creativity. To achieve new possibilities, he said one must be ready to take risks in life. He also noted that the age of internet and Artificial Intelligence (AI) has altered the life of the youths. Every solution to our problem is a click away, however he warned the youths to make use of the modern technology responsibly as it has the capacity to destroy one's life easily.

Extending his appreciation to the Ongpangkong Kaketshir Mungdang (OKM), he encouraged the players to compete in team spirit and to value friendship.
