The Second (informal) session was hosted Mr. Ngachanthem Vashi, 5th Sem. Pol. Science and Miss Shihrani Daili, 5th Sem. Pol. Science. The highlight of the session was that it was a time of bonding among students as they get to know each other through the Freshers’ Talent and the question rounds, leading to the declaration of Miss and Mr. Fresher ACI 2026. After multiple rounds of competitions along with energetic display of vigour and style by the contestants, Miss Ashuli Adaziini and Mr. Tsiivei Topson Soukhamai were crowned Miss and Mr. Fresher respectively.
True to the opening address which declared that “your journey begins today, and your future is yours to create,” the college’s first-years experienced a mix of formality and informality as they kicked-off their new academic journey in ACI. The day concluded with a final prayer from Miss Ashuni, Asst. Prof. Dept, of Zoology.
