I congratulate Dr. Samanta for establishing institutions of character like KIIT and KISS. I urge the students of KIIT and KISS to take a lead in spreading the message of peace and non-violence in the present day strife-torn world — Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, former president of India Dr. Samanta has demonstrated that if one has passion to do something for society, a lot can be done. The work that he has done has only a few parallels in the whole world — M. Hamid Ansari, vice president of India KISS has gained a good reputation in the country. I pray for further progress and growth of Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences — Naveen Patnaik, chief minister, Odisha KISS has realised the dream of Mahatma Gandhi and should be replicated in every state — Kantilal Bhuria, former Union minister for tribal affairs KISS shows how to convert the constitutional guarantee for the tribals into reality — Kapil Sibal, Union HRD minister We have been dreaming of providing education to tribal children for long. KISS is the solution — Dr. Shantha Sinha, chairperson, National Commission for Protection of Child Rights One has to see this place, to believe that such results can be achieved which is the true vision of free India — J.S. Verma, former chief justice of India I wish to become the brand ambassador of KISS, if given an opportunity by its founder Dr. A. Samanta — Dr. Narendra Jadhav, member, Planning Commission and National Advisory Council KISS and Dr. Samanta are fantastic. I am inspired by him and am honoured to meet him — Andrew J.B. Mitchell, secretary of state for international development, UK I have no doubt that KISS should be the model that we should emulate in rural India to ensure a great future for the country — Prof. C.N.R. Rao, chairman, Scientific Advisory Council to the prime minister This story of KISS would be exceptional in its own right. But it is even more unique in that the dream of a better life is extended to tribal students, students from poor backgrounds and students without a certain future — Timothy J. Roemer, US ambassador to India KISS is a great institution. I express my great sense of satisfaction and pride that I have been introduced to the founder of this institution, Dr. A. Samanta. I have already become his disciple — Ram Jethmalani, MP and Supreme Court advocate Facebook Twitter LinkedIn WhatsApp
