Lierie Baptist Youth Department (LBYD) celebrated its 19th foundation day on January 28, with Nagaland Voluntary Consumers Organization (NVCO) president and ACAUT (legal cell) convenor, Kezhokhoto Savi as speaker.
In the programme, Savi said that ACAUT team had met the chief minister and had also submitted required rules and guidelines for establishing Lokayukta in the state to curb corruption.

He exhorted that a Christian youth was a youth whose life was total example of Christ irrespective of the challenges around.
