It is my privilege to be part of the august institution, established long fifty years back. It’s very existence reverberates the rich cultural legacy of the place. It was conceptualized by the academicians and activists in the civil society of Sambalpur to spread the light of education. Given its location, it has consistently tried to live upto expectations of all by translating dream of many into reality. It has tumbled many times. But, the bonding between the teacher and taught has helped it to hold the roots firmly. It has been unfurling itself successfully and trying to scale new heights everyday. I wish all success for its enviable growth from bottom of my heart.
