Five girls of the Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS) have been selected by the Tata Steel for the All India Tribal Youth leadership Programme to be held at Asia Plateau, Panchgani, Maharashtra from May 5 to 11.
They are Parbati Tubid, Itaswari Kumura, Dabaki Naik, Anupama Bhoi and Saraswati Hansdah. All are pursuing their PhD at the KISS. The programme is aimed to create a platform where youths are able to interact and network with each other and at the same time gain some new perspective on leadership and values so that they go out and do the good work with more zeal and inspiration.Congratulating these students, KIIT and KISS Founder Prof Achyuta Samanta said this programme would surely inspire them to serve the downtrodden of the society.
