Vehicle should not be allowed to park during day time within central square market nor should vehicle be allowed to pass through it. People should get into it on foot. Space should be created either near present cooperative complex or near Old Fish Market for developing parking place.
In between present local veg market and the other side of mela ground is to be connected with over bridge. A high mast tower for illumination all round is to be erected nearby Nehru statue in the center of market. With this market will at least look fresh and bright.
Pasighat is a country of huge population, it reflects clearly vast number of people are still uneducated. We can’t anticipate skilled job from them. MNC’s demands are well qualified employee with perfection for the manpower strength in the company. India seems lagging in this sector. Our government introduces plans which could give guarantee employment (like NREGA) , but thing which Indian economy needs pretty badly today is the source from where they could gain skills.
They don’t make a well established successful Pasighat, instead they are making labours with a pathetic job.Government isn’t providing opportunities to learn and growth, but they are enhancing those schemes which could help them to stand in center and states. Every politician know this fact pretty well, but they has to indulge in their own life also. The situation how economy suffering from crisis, doesn’t bother to upper echelon bureaucrats including politicians.
restructuring, renovation of buildings only will not lift the face of Pasighat township. It also need beautification with recreational parks and plantation of avenue plant in market area. Its lucky for us to have sufficient open space in main market i.e. local veg market, fruit market and mela ground.
Pasighat with lots of great minds and manpower. But everything is going in vain because of the lack of practical education which helps develop greater skills in man. Practical education alone cannot improve skilled manpower there are other reasons also which has to taken care of. If the people of Pasighat are skilled in proper manner there is no doubt that Pasighat would soon be a developed country. This is the responsibility of our government and each and everyone of us.
The government should give opportunities so that the intelligence and talent of our countrymen will be seen and it will not be wasted.In Pasighat there are lot of resources and lot of manpower but this manpower is not well skilled. This is due to lack of practical knowledge. We have to concentrate on the practical knowledge during our education program.
We have learnt from the explanation given by Istein Koyu about retrofitting part of the proposal, every body, on inquiry, suggest for renovating ans restructuring buildings and other structure of present Main market. we are in favour of giving a fresh look of market scenerio.
In Pasighat, graduate student who wants to do research on some specific topic they think that they will not able proceed research here because of lack of proper education system, lack of infrastructure, lack of good mentor so, they have go to the other developed country like USA.
In Pasighat, our education system have following drawbacks:
1. Lack of infrastructure.
2. Lack of good teacher in government school.
3. In our education system we concentrate more on theoretical knowledge.
They were not particularly interested in developing a scientific temper in their Indian subjects because all technology was profitably imported from Britain. It made sense for the Brits to make us literate but not necessarily well educated and enlightened. For genuine education one had to cross the seas and seek enlightenment in some English school and university. No wonder most of our Indian intellectuals in the 19th and 20th century were ‘English Educated’ from abroad.
