Proud moment for #KISS-DU as we wrap up the groundbreaking national workshop and symposium led by Indigenous voices, aligned with the UN Declaration on Indigenous Rights. We are humbled by the recognition from the Ministry of Culture for their collaboration with IGRMS and the need for national policy principles.

We are excited about the future, as we are in the process of establishing the world’s first Indigenous Pedagogical Museum, a testament to our commitment to preserving Indigenous cultures and knowledge.

Have you ever noticed how a simple cup of tea can evoke so many emotions and bring people together? Whether you're feeling bored, catching up with an old friend, or waiting for someone, tea is the perfect way to start a conversation and pass the time. For me, tea has been a way of life since childhood - from sipping on black tea and puffed rice to indulging in milk tea during my college years. Having 15-20 cups during formative years of #KIIT and now shifting to some healthy options and reducing the intake to 3 cups- tea has been a way of my life.

Yesterday, we paid tribute to Pandit Raghunath Murmu, a prominent Santali writer and educator, on his birth anniversary. His contribution towards preserving the Santali language by composing songs, poems and developing the 'Ol Chiki' script is immeasurable.

Proud to learn that Shri Biswanath Patnaik, an Odia entrepreneur and founder of the FinNest Group of Companies, has pledged a generous £25 million towards the construction of the UK's first Jagannath Temple. This is one of the largest philanthropic donations given to a temple outside of India.

Big thanks to Shri Arun Kar, MD of FinNest for being one of the principal donors. This would help preserve and promote Jagannath culture in the UK for generations to come.
