In a press release, BJP Mokokchung district media cell informed that during the programme, Aso Imsong spoke on the topic “traits and characteristics of a good leader”.
He said that a good leader should be hardworking, good communicator, have a good lifestyle and have a vision.
Speaking on the topic “‘roles and responsibilities of a public leader – do’s and don’ts”, Rev. Dr. Imkong Jamir said a leader should be a motivator, a guide and someone who garners public support.
“He should have self-awareness to lead the people”, Rev. Imkong stated.
Sharing that this was the first time that spoke at a leadership workshop organised by a political party, the resource persons expressed hope that the workshop would be a starting point from which, leaders would interface, learn and lead people.
At the programme, BJP Mokokchung district office also handed out appointment orders to different capacities in the party’s organisational set up.
Delivering the keynote address, BJP Mokokchung district president Imolemba Jamir said BJP was prepared to face the political scenario of Nagaland.
Imolemba said if the seat sharing of 40:20 ratio between NDPP and BJP should be accepted, then it was “common sense” that 60% of municipal seats be reserved for BJP in the forthcoming urban local bodies/town committees.
He also stated that if Dimapur with five constituencies could be allotted three NDPP tickets then Mokokchung district with 10 constituencies should also be allotted at least four BJP tickets as per the seat sharing arrangement.
The 26 Aonglenden mandal also handed appointment orders to inducted officers at the programme.
