The chief minister said that efforts like the establishment of the Staff Selection Board, removal of VIP culture, improved e-governance and use of technology to combat governance challenges remain at the core of the government's initiatives. 

"The thanksgiving service is significant because it came on the backdrop of the completion of three years of PDA government," Rio stated. He also said that while progressive achievements were made, the government has been bogged down with an entire year of battling the global pandemic. He commented that the remaining two years of the government tenure is most crucial and important in fulfilling the promises of the manifesto and the Common Minimum Programme.

Rio congratulated H Chuba Chang for being elected unopposed adding that it will be his 5th time entering the Nagaland Legislative Assembly from the Noksen assembly constituency under Tuensang district. He also expressed his gratitude especially to the intending candidates unanimously abided by the party principle of supporting the official candidate who was given a ticket. Rio added that through it, an excellent precedent has been set and party discipline has been exemplified and congratulate all those who played a contributing role in securing this uncontested victory.
