Student Achiever Award - Year 2025

Recognised on the occasion of 77th Republic Day 2026 at KIIT In 🇮🇳

This award didn’t come from one win. It came from a year of showing up, pushing limits, and betting hard on research.

Some milestones from the journey:

Secured an IIPP-funded research internship in Taiwan (R.O.C.), supported by the National Science & Technology Council, Taiwan (NT$ 60,000), and conducted a fully funded research internship abroad
Indian patent published (2025): Methodological Framework for Equity-Focused Nutrition Recommendation System
Oral papers at ICDCIT 2025 (Main Track + SRS, Best Paper Award), ICEDGE 2025 (IISc Bengaluru), PReMI 2025 (IIT Delhi)
Poster at ACM Compute 2025 (IIT Ropar), with Student Travel Grant Awards at ACM Compute and ICEdge
Research internships at DRDO DYSL-AI and MIDAS Lab, IIIT Delhi
2025 output so far: 2 Q1 journals (IF ~5.0), 9 book chapters, 150+ citations, h-index 7

I’m deeply thankful to Achyuta Samanta Founder, KIIT & KISS, and the Vice Chancellor KIIT, Prof. (Dr.) Saranjit Singh, for conferring this honour. Grateful to KIIT - Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology and the School of Computer Engineering, KIIT DU for trusting students to aim beyond the obvious.

Special thanks to the faculty who shaped my research mindset across disciplines: Dr. Amlana Panda, Dr. Anjan Bandyopadhyay, Dr. Sujata Swain, Dr. HRUDAYA KUMAR TRIPATHY, Dr. seba mohanty and Dr. Banipriya Mishra.

And a special thanks to Prof.(Dr.) Prachet Bhuyan and Dr. Abhishek Ray : your guidance made this path clearer and bolder.

Above everything, this award is for my parents. Their belief carried me through every uncertain step.

This moment means a lot - not as a finish line, but as proof that focused effort, good mentorship, and persistence compound.

Open to research collaborations.
