In view of the State Government’s advisory and as an extreme precaution against coronavirus, the Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS) authorities have declared to close the institute much before summer vacation.
KIIT & KISS founder Dr Achyuta Samanta advised the 30,000 students of the KISS to continue taking precautions during their stay at home also. Students should always wash their hands with soap. They should also tell their family members to be careful and wash their hands with soap. They should also spread such awareness in their districts, he told.
It has been instructed to all the teachers to be in regular contact with students so that they could continue their studies at home.
This is the first time in the KISS’ history that the institute has declared holidays before any vacation. The KISS had never declared holiday before any vacations even during critical situations like Super Cyclone and heavy rainfall.
