ITANAGAR, 10 Feb: The annual college fest of Rajiv Gandhi Government Polytechnic College, REILA (Recreation, Entertainment, Information and Literary Activities) concluded on Sunday with much pomp and grandeur. It was a weeklong celebration filled with enthusiasm, creativity, and a sense of camaraderie among the students and facultymembers.

The cultural segment of the fest was a vibrant display of the diverse artistic talents of the students. The literary events included debates, and extempore speech, poetry recitation and quiz competitions. These activities provided a platform for students to express their thoughts and ideas eloquently.
Tadar Baro, a renowned student activist, attended the last day of the REILA. In his speech, he said, “All successful scientists and engineers failed a thousand times, yet they didn’t give up.
