A public felicitation ceremony will be organised at Kendujhar to honour individuals from different walks of life who have made significant and commendable contributions towards social service and the development of the district.
This event is being organised with the objective of recognising dedicated individuals who, through their selfless service, have worked for the welfare of society. The organisers believe that such recognition not only honours achievers but also inspires the younger generation to work for the greater good of society.
The ceremony will include the felicitation of personalities from diverse fields such as education, literature, culture, social service, sports, health, administration, media, art, entrepreneurship, and other public service sectors. Individuals who have worked silently and tirelessly for social upliftment will be brought to the forefront and honoured on this platform.
The programme aims to recognise people who have made notable contributions towards social welfare and the overall development of Kendujhar district. Through this initiative, the organisers intend to encourage a culture of appreciation and inspire society, especially the youth, to work with dedication for the collective good.
Distinguished individuals from fields such as education, literature, culture, social service, sports, health, administration, journalism, arts, entrepreneurship, and other public service sectors will be honoured on this occasion. Many individuals who have been working quietly and selflessly for society will be brought to the forefront and recognised.
The organisers stated that Kendujhar is home to many talented and socially committed individuals whose contributions deserve public acknowledgement. This ceremony is an effort to unite society and promote positive action for inclusive development.
On this occasion, a special stage play titled “Maha Sangramara Maha Nayak (Baxi Jagabandhu)” will also be presented, highlighting the life, sacrifice, and heroic struggle of Baxi Jagabandhu, a legendary freedom fighter and symbol of resistance. The play is expected to evoke patriotic भावना and remind the audience of Odisha’s glorious history.
The organisers have stated that Kendujhar has produced many talented and service-minded individuals whose contributions deserve recognition at a larger public forum. Through this programme, an effort is being made to unite society, encourage positive action, and strengthen the spirit of collective responsibility.
The organisers have appealed to citizens from all sections of society to attend the programme in large numbers, extend their cooperation, and make the event a grand success.
