  I do appreciate the effort and I would like to contribute some names. Some points may be pondered into.
  1. The names may also include eminent persons of Orissa in other professional fields like- Medical,Engineering,Research Assistants, Top beurocrats etc.
  2. [Suggestion deleted by editor]
  3.If the purpose is to bring out a sense of achievement of Orissa then I do feel that the people themselves should also be encouraged to suggest their name in line with nominations for the award they make. An incentive may also be attached to this effort in the form of recognization by Govt. Of Orissa or any other means
  Thanks
  Ashoka

  Any help will be appreciated.

  I guess social science and humanities teachers/researchers do not count as ‘faculty’….

  Or do they? If yes, I do not mind adding some names in later posts.

  It is a great idea and an effort worthy to follow up further. I am sure, it will make a big impact on someone\’s mind (I mean Oriya) out there who needs bit of inspiration and motivation to excel in life…

  IIT\’s and Educational Institutions are definitely a very good beginning. I would have a suggestion…..Many Oriya people working in govt. jobs, PSU\’s, reputed private industries and private research institutions have risen to great heights and have made a big impact in their own areas and their names will also inspire budding young minds to take up challenging careers…

• 32. Shanti Swaroop Das  |  July 21st, 2008 at 4:33 pm

  I am very happy to see this initiative. But to what extent will these details help other Oriya people across the world. If the person listed here can let others know how they can help, it would have been much better. Also how can I contact the person I need help/suggestion from. But the initiative is queit appreciable and would be very helpful if email address are also provided. If it is just for information, then it is like showing the cake from far off.
  HOW I CAN HELP: I am currently working in UK and would be delighted to give suggestions to those coming newly to UK.

  The effort to form a network of faculties and reserachers in science, engineering and other disciplines is really appreciable.

  Prof. Oopali Operajita, the celebrated Odissi danseuse, also has the distinction of being the first Oriya to hold a senior faculty position at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, USA. Prof. Operajita was appointed Distinguished Faculty Fellow (at the rank of full professor) in 1989 by Carnegie Mellon University\’s legendary founder president, Dr Richard Cyert. She is a Senior Political and International Affairs Adviser to several of India\’s prominent leaders. Prof. Operajita is the daughter of eminent Oriya educators, late Prof. Bidhu Bhusan Das (who was educated at Harvard, Columbia and Christ Church, Oxford University) and Prof. Prabhat Nalini Das (former Pro Vice Chancellor of North Easter Hill University (Nagaland campus) and herself a Fulbright Smith Mundt Fellow at the University of Minnesota). Orissa must be proud of a family of such international academic distinction. I met Prof. Operajita — she is Chair of The Al Gore Sustainable Technology Venture Competition (www.cicerotransnational.com). Click on The Al Gore Sustainable Technology Venture Competition.
