Pujara would train the boys from the five NE states - Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Meghalaya, Sikkim and Nagaland - for two days as part of the overall focus of the BCCI to nurture talent and boost cricket activities in the region.
"It is an honour for me to share my experience with young cricketers. It is a nice initiative by the by the Board to promote cricket in the North East. We need to nurture the talent in smaller states," Pujara told BCCI.TV.
The NCA is also conducting zonal camps for U-16 and U-19, where 25 players from every eone - east, central, north, west and south - are being given an all-round training.
Pujara feels having zonal camps is a big plus in the off-season.
"I have been a beneficiary of the system. Saurashtra now is a strong centre, but earlier we were not in the same league as Mumbai or Karnataka. I was picked for the camps in the NCA and trained in Bangalore. Being a part of the NCA helped me in my early days," he said.
