MITS Group is among the leaders in Odisha for taking up socially relevant initiatives that bring dignity, health, spiritual harmony, and educational opportunity to the most underserved communities.
This is the guiding motto with which MITS Group and the Basanta Devi Charitable Trust structure all social responsibility programs. For us, CSR is not a statutory obligation—it is our founding ethos.
Under the visionary leadership of Shri Balakrishna Panda, our outreach addresses the most critical social challenges in Odisha's KBK districts: educational scholarships for gifted rural children, free medical treatment for remote tribal hamlets, adult night literacy centers, and holistic spiritual education.
Odisha Scholar is a signature talent identification drive pioneered by MITS Group. Designed to motivate meritorious young boys and girls across all districts of Odisha, the exam tests candidates' verbal, quantitative, analytical, and scientific reasoning in a rigorous test setting.
In its milestone edition, Odisha Scholar had over 15,000 participating students from across the state. Top performers receive comprehensive scholarships covering tuition fees, mentorship, and books for higher technical and scientific education.

Providing vital emergency care, maternal health, and free medicine distribution since 1996.
Established in 1996 at Gudiabandha, Padmapur by the Basanta Devi Charitable Trust, this hospital was founded when primary healthcare facilities in southern rural Odisha were virtually non-existent.
The hospital provides free medical consultations, maternal care, pediatric support, and subsidized diagnostic tests to thousands of impoverished families. In tandem with MITS institutions, regular health check-up camps, blood donation drives, and hygiene awareness workshops are organized in tribal hamlets.
Situated in the sacred triconfluence natural reserve at Shri Minajhola, Chandrapur, Rayagada, the Janakalyan Gurukul & Ashram was established by Shri Balakrishna Panda in 2024. It represents a sublime fusion of Vedic learning, character development, tribal education, and environmental harmony.
The Gurukul provides free residential boarding and values-based schooling for tribal children, teaching traditional Indian philosophy alongside modern science, yoga, meditation, and sustainable agrarian living.
Uplifting tribal youth with spiritual dignity and modern life skills at sacred Minajhola.
To break the cycle of generational poverty in the KBK region, MITS operates community night schools where daytime agricultural and daily wage workers can learn functional literacy, arithmetic, financial awareness, and digital basics.
Recognizing that cultural heritage is vital to community cohesion, Chairman Shri Balakrishna Panda has spearheaded the construction, renovation, and revitalization of over 10 historic temples and tribal heritage sites across Odisha.
