Nitte University established the ‘NAMASTE Centre for Studies on NE States’ in the year 2015 with the aim of connecting emotionally and culturally with the NE states of the country. The establishment of this centre was a result of the unstinting efforts of Late Shri P B Acharya, former Governor of Nagaland, who was a messiah of love and brotherhood for our fellow countrymen in NE India.

Some of the major activities of the Centre include conduct of certificate programs on NE dialects, collaborative research in healthcare, solidarity cultural exchange programs for students/faculty and higher education opportunities to NE students in the form of full tuition fee waiver. 

One of the major highlights of the conference was the uniqueness associated with the event, that allowed scientific deliberations on issues pertaining to NE states of the country by bringing in experts & scientists from various domains under a common platform, in a university located in south west India. The deliberations were extremely productive and resulted in creation of several new connections and identification of areas where Nitte DU could contribute to mitigating the issues, through collaborative efforts. 

The conference also included a cultural extravaganza, put together by the students of the university that included a display of the tradition & culture of NE states along with a breath-taking compilation of the traditional dance forms of Karnataka.
