Minister for Railways Suresh Prabhu and Minister of State for Railways Manoj Sinha visited the Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS) on Saturday.
Addressing the 25,000 tribal students of KISS, Prabhu said, “I have never ever seen such a big tribal institution. I am visiting the largest tribal institution in the world for the first time.”
“One day students of KISS must bring laurels not only to the KISS but for the entire country. Students should learn in such a way that they can excel in their career and can uphold their culture and tradition,” he observed.
Sinha also thanked KIIT and KISS founder Dr Achuta Samanta for his contribution towards nation rebuilding through providing education to 25,000 tribal students of the KISS. It is surely a noble work of Dr Samanta, he said, adding that the aim of Dr Samanta to educate tribal students must be fulfilled.
In his welcome address, Dr Samanta highlighted the achievements of KISS students in various fields.
