Subject: Fwd: Dr. Samanta who set a unversity all by himself with less than Rs. 5,000-- read the amazing story
To:Dr. Samanta withstood the vagaries of circumstances to rise tall, not by material richness but by ethical values of life. Setting up KIIT-a world class university all by himself with less than Rs. 5000 in his pocket is now history. He dreamed of a world where poverty would not stand as a hindrance to one's education. In his effort's he created a slice of heaven on earth, christened it as Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS), for twenty thousand neglected and underprivileged tribal children living beyond our 'civilised' world.
Click on the link below to read his biography. Unable to copy .Achyut Samanta, who lived his childhood in poverty after he lost his father at the age of four, has been bringing out tribal children from their homes and educating them to ensure they stand on their own two feet. About 23 per cent of Odisha’s 42 million population are tribals and they are considered among the poorest of the poor with high illiteracy rate.Samanta started the Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT) as a small industrial training institute in 1993 with Rs5,000 (Dh301) — the sum total of his savings — in a rented shed. A year later, he launched the Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS), its social arm. Today, KIIT University has 28 schools offering more than 100 programmes and is one of the finest multi-disciplinary universities in Odisha.KISS, spread over 80 acres and equipped with modern facilities, provides residential kindergarten to post-graduate level educational and vocational training for free to over 20,000 tribal children from 62 tribes, 13 of them primitive, under one roof.KISS’s monthly recurring expenditure works out to be over Rs60 million and since its inception it has been running on voluntary financial contributions from staff, students, managements and well-wishers of KIIT University.“All donate freely,” Samanta told IANS in an interview.Samanta later set up a 1,500-bed hospital and developed a cluster of villages in his native place into a model one with all the amenities of a city, among many other humanitarian activities.The more than 25 square kilometre complex, which houses most of the institutions founded by Samanta, has been transformed into a modern township, just on the edge of Bhubaneswar, providing livelihoods to millions.He believes in the Art of Giving and does not own any land or buildings in his name or posses a bank account. He said the success of KIIT, fuelled by the general boom in private education, helped him to support his humanitarian activities.Ravi--
