Company sponsors effort to conserve heritage

Despite our pride in our heritage, lack of adequate attention, especially that of professionals, has resulted in loss of part of it every year.

To address this problem in Orissa, Tata Steel invited Mr. Karan Grover, along with his team of associate architects, to conduct a workshop on the concept of Dhauli Peace Park, Khandagiri - Udaygiri Heritage Corridor and a landscape plan for Bhubaneswar. The workshop was attended by top IAS officers of the State. Their opinion was incorporated in the presentation made to the Chief Secretary of the State and the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Orissa.

Knowledge sharing is expected to be undertaken between M/s Karan Grover and IIT, Kharagpur. During their meeting, the Chief Minister underscored the importance of establishing the Institute of Mathematics
