BHUBANESWAR, India, 29 de agosto de 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- El Ministerio de Recursos Humanos del Gobierno de India ha otorgado la condición de Universidad al Instituto de Ciencias Sociales Kalinga (KISS), una entidad hermana del Instituto de Tecnología Industrial Kalinga (KIIT), ver su Carta No. F.9-14/2011-U-3 (A) con fecha 08/25/2017, que se ha convertido en la primera universidad tribal en India y en todo el mundo. Aunque anteriormente ya se había establecido la Universidad Nacional Tribal Indira Gandhi, esta matricula a estudiantes de todas las categorías. Por su parte, la Universidad KISS es exclusivamente para estudiantes tribales.

KISS de un vistazo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2OKrbupDtA.

KISS, con sede en Bhubaneswar, India, ha sido declarada Universidad Considerada bajo la categoría De-novo. La Universidad contará con siete nuevos e innovadores departamentos en la primera fase para dar impulso a la investigación sobre estudios tribales y ayudar a KISS a alcanzar un lugar prominente en la investigación y la educación tribal en todo el mundo; la condición de Universidad Considerada se ha otorgado con esa esperanza. Al igual que antes, los estudiantes de la Universidad KISS recibirán una educación residencial totalmente libre de costos.

Expresando su satisfacción, el Dr. Achyuta Samanta, fundador de la Universidad KISS, dijo: "Esto ha sido posible gracias a las bendiciones del Todopoderoso y a los buenos deseos de la gente de Odisha". El Dr. Samanta, a nombre de KISS, expresó su más sentida gratitud al primer ministro de India, Shri Narendra Modi. Expresando su gratitud a Shri Naveen Patnaik, Honorable ministro jefe de Odisha, Shri Samanta dijo que sin sus bendiciones y buenos deseos, KISS no podría haber alcanzado esa altura.

Ha expresado su gratitud personal al Ministro de Desarrollo de Recursos Humanos de la Unión, Shri Prakash Javadekar, que hizo historia al aprobar el otorgamiento de la condición de Universidad a ser Considerada a KISS. Ha dado las gracias a los funcionarios del Ministerio de Desarrollo de Recursos Humanos del Gobierno de India, y a la Comisión de Otorgamientos de Universidades por su aprobación. Agradeció a dos ministros de la Unión de Odisha: Shri Jual Oram, ministro de Asuntos Tribales, y Shri Dharmendra Pradhan, ministro de Petróleo, por su ayuda y sus buenos deseos. El Dr. Samanta también expresó su agradecimiento a los medios informativos locales, nacionales e internacionales por su apoyo.

Se supone que la Universidad Considerada KISS es la primera universidad del mundo exclusivamente para estudiantes tribales y estudios tribales. Es completamente gratis y completamente residencial. El Instituto de Ciencias Sociales Kalinga (KISS) fue fundado por el profesor Achyuta Samanta en 1992-93 en un edificio alquilado en Bhubaneswar, con solo 125 estudiantes tribales pobres. Experimentó un enorme crecimiento, con un aumento gradual en la cantidad de estudiantes. Actualmente, el número de estudiantes de KISS llega a 37.000 (27.000 estudiantes actuales y 10.000 graduados). El 60 por ciento de ellos son del sexo femenino.

Además de la educación formal de la Clase I al nivel de posgrado, se imparte a los estudiantes una gran variedad de conocimientos vocacionales. Además de implementar cabalmente los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible de Naciones Unidas, KISS ha sido capaz de producir necesarios cambios sociales en el territorio tribal de Odisha y los estados vecinos restringiendo la extensión de la insurgencia maoísta y la naxalita. KISS, a través de sus 37.000 estudiantes que proceden de muchas familias en distintas poblaciones del estado, está transformando realmente la mentalidad tribal y ayudándolos a integrarse a la sociedad general.

Hubo un estallido de alegría entre los estudiantes de KISS cuando conocieron esta noticia. El logro llenó de júbilo a los padres de unos 37.000 estudiantes del instituto y de la comunidad tribal.
