Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) Chairman Prof David R Syiemlieh visited the Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS) and the KIIT here on Thursday.
“I feel conscious as I stand before you and it has never happened in my life before. Each one of you is unique, a special gift, and your leader Dr Achyuta Samanta, founder, KIIT & KISS, is a great visionary. I have never seen a person with so much simplicity and humility in my life.” he said, addressing the 25,000 tribal students of the institute. Everybody should visit the KISS rather visiting historical sites, said he
Students should establish themselves in society and adopt the qualities of Dr Samanta in serving the poor, deprived and underprivileged, he urged.
Among others Niankoro Yeah Samake, Ambassador Plenipotentiary and Extraordinary, Republic of Mali, and Philippe le Gall, Ambassador of the Republic of Seychelles, also spoke on the occasion. D. Samanta delivered a welcome address.
