20 years of KiiT International School is a matter of great happiness for me.

It feels like yesterday that KiiT International School started its journey. Today, it has completed 20 years and has bloomed in the true sense. Over these years, the school has grown in every respect and has become a place where children are cared for with love, discipline and sincerity.

KiiT International School has always tried to give quality education along with values, confidence, creativity, sports, culture and overall development. I feel happy that our students are getting an environment where they can learn well and grow as good human beings.

As Founder, I convey my good wishes to all the students, teachers and staff of KiiT International School. I also appreciate the Chairperson, Principal and the entire team for their hard work, dedication and care in taking the school forward.

Happy to share that the KIIT School of Sports and Yogic Sciences has signed an MoU with National Sports University, Manipur, to strengthen sports education, sports science research, yoga education, student and faculty exchange, high-performance sports development and knowledge sharing.

National Sports University, Manipur, established under an Act of Parliament in 2018, is an important institution of the Government of India dedicated to sports education, research and training. I feel happy that KIIT is joining hands with such a national institution for the development of sports and youth.

My sincere thanks to Shri Daljit Singh Chawdhary Ji, Vice-Chancellor, National Sports University, Manipur, for this meaningful partnership. I hope this MoU will contribute to the growth of sports education and research in India and help many young people move forward with discipline, knowledge and confidence.

KISS Ranked 24th in India among Government and Private Institutions in THE Sustainability Impact Ratings 2026.

I feel very happy to share that KISS Deemed to be University has shown a very good performance in the Times Higher Education World Sustainability Impact Ratings 2026.

KISS has been placed in the 401–600 global rank band and secured 24th position in India among government and private institutions. This is a big jump from the 1001–1500 global band in 2025.

For a young deemed-to-be university like KISS, created exclusively for tribal children, this recognition gives me deep happiness. It shows that when work is done with sincerity, care and purpose, the world also recognises it slowly.

KISS has also secured Top 10 positions in India in three important SDGs — SDG 1: No Poverty, 6th; SDG 4: Quality Education, 9th; and SDG 5: Gender Equality, 6th. These SDGs are closely connected with the life, dignity, education and empowerment of our tribal children, especially our girls.

This recognition belongs to our students, alumni, teachers, staff, well-wishers and everyone who has believed in this mission. We will continue to work with humility and responsibility for the poorest of the poor, for tribal empowerment, and for a more equal and compassionate society.

KIIT No. 1 in India in 3 SDGs in THE Sustainability Impact Ratings 2026

Happy to share that KIIT has achieved another proud milestone in the Times Higher Education Sustainability Impact Ratings 2026, securing the 101–200 global rank band and 4th position overall in India.

KIIT had a very humble beginning, but it has made its mark globally through rankings, accreditations and quality education. Today, KIIT stands with confidence among the reputed universities of the world. In India too, it has made a significant impact as a leading university.

KIIT has secured:

• 1st position in India in three SDGs — SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities, SDG 14: Life Below Water, and SDG 16: Peace, Justice & Strong Institutions.

• 2nd position in India in two SDGs — SDG 9: Industry, Innovation & Infrastructure, and SDG 15: Life on Land.

• 3rd position in India in three SDGs — SDG 4: Quality Education, SDG 6: Clean Water & Sanitation, and SDG 7: Affordable & Clean Energy.

All remaining SDGs are within the Top 10 in India.

Slow and steady wins the race, and this journey of KIIT proves that sincere effort, discipline and faith always bring results. This recognition belongs to all our students, faculty, staff and well-wishers of KIIT & KISS. We will continue to work with humility and responsibility for a better and more sustainable world.

On Olympic Day, I extend my warm wishes to all sportspersons, coaches, students, sports lovers and especially our KIIT & KISS students who have made us proud as Olympians.

The Olympic spirit teaches us that sports is not only about winning medals. It is about discipline, hard work, friendship, respect and the courage to keep moving forward.

At KIIT & KISS, we have always tried to create an environment where children and young athletes get the right facilities, coaching and care to dream bigger. When I see our students play with confidence and sincerity, I feel very happy from within.

May the Olympic spirit continue to inspire every child to play, learn, grow and never give up.

During my one-day visit to Switzerland, I felt very happy to meet my dear friend and brother, Mr Fabio Azevedo, President of FIVB.

We share a very warm and close relationship. Our discussion was full of love, ideas and hope for the future of Volleyball and Beach Volleyball.

We spoke about how volleyball can reach new heights, how more opportunities can be created for young players, and how KIIT and KISS can contribute more to the global volleyball movement.

I am grateful to Mr Fabio and the FIVB family for their trust, affection and encouragement. Together, we will continue to work for the growth of volleyball in India and across the world.
