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.

Eleven years of Digital India is a proud journey of using technology for people’s welfare.

Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji, digital governance has reached every corner of India and empowered students, youth, farmers, women and citizens.

At KIIT, KISS and KIMS, we have seen how technology can transform education, healthcare and opportunity.

My gratitude to Hon’ble Prime Minister for this powerful mission.

On National Doctors’ Day, my heartfelt greetings and good wishes to all doctors who serve society with care and dedication.

I also convey my special wishes to all doctors of our @KIMSBBSR family. KIMS started with a humble beginning and today has become a 2600-bedded multi-speciality hospital, serving thousands of patients every day.

This has been possible because of the sincere service and patient-friendly care of our doctors.

Happy National Doctors’ Day.

As part of our International Student Engagement Programme, our international students embarked on a memorable Heritage Walk to Cuttack and a Nature Retreat.

From discovering the historic charm of Cuttack and the iconic Barabati Stadium to enjoying the tranquillity of Odisha’s natural landscapes, the experience offered a perfect blend of culture, learning, and recreation.

Through team-building activities, outdoor games, and meaningful interactions, students strengthened bonds, fostered intercultural understanding, and created lasting memories as they experienced the rich heritage and natural beauty of Odisha.

At KIIT, we continue to foster meaningful dialogue on emerging technologies and their impact on the future. Through the HORIZON Lecture Series, the Centre of Innovation Research (COIR) hosted an invited lecture on "Nuclear Energy: Emerging Demand and Opportunities" by Dr Kundan Das, Founder of 4.0 Smart Industry Advisory Services Ltd. and Professor of Practice at COIR.

Dr Das shared valuable insights on the growing energy demands of the AI era, emphasising the critical role of sustainable energy solutions and robust infrastructure in supporting technological advancement. The session was further enriched by an engaging interaction with Mr Prasad Routray, Co-founder of ZYVKA, who brought valuable industry perspectives to the discussion.

What if your MBA prepared you to build companies instead of just finding jobs?

At KIIT's MBA in Innovation, Entrepreneurship & Venture Development (IEV), students learn directly from industry, embrace continuous change, and develop the skills to turn ideas into impactful ventures.

The future belongs to creators.

Very happy to share that our KIIT & KISS students performed Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet, Hamlet and Macbeth in Santali today in Kolkata.

After their return from Romania, and after their performances in Delhi and Bhubaneswar, it was a proud moment to see our children perform again today before a distinguished gathering in Kolkata. For me, Shakespeare in Santali by our tribal students is very special. It shows that when children are given love, care and opportunity, their talent can reach any stage in the world.

The programme was graced by Padma Bhushan Shri Leander Paes Ji, Olympic Medallist and International Tennis Hall of Famer; Smt. Purnima Chakraborty Ji, Hon’ble Minister of State for Information & Cultural Affairs and Tourism, Government of West Bengal; and many eminent guests.

I feel very happy that everyone appreciated the performance of our children. When our tribal children perform on such platforms and receive so much love, it touches my heart. It gives them courage and takes their language, culture and confidence to a larger world.

Deeply pained by the recent earthquakes in Venezuela, Japan and Northern California, especially the tragic loss of more than 230 lives in Venezuela.

No words can reduce the pain of families who have lost their loved ones. My heartfelt condolences to them, and prayers for the speedy recovery of all those injured. May God give strength to everyone affected in this difficult time.

My best wishes to everyone for taking Odia cinema forward with more strength and creativity.
