Sambalpur, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi today laid the foundation stone for the permanent campus of IIM Sambalpur through video conferencing. The ceremony was attended by Union Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokharial ‘Nishank’, Union Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas, Steel Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and Union Minister Shri Pratap Chandra along with Odisha Governor Prof Ganesh Lal and Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik. On the occasion, the Prime Minister said that the permanent campus of IIM Sambalpur would not only showcase the culture and natural resources of Odisha but also give Odisha a global identity in the field of management.
He said that in the recent past, the number of Indian multinationals has increased, with more and more foreign companies coming to India. While startups are on the rise in second- and third-class cities, more 'unicorns' have been found in India despite the crisis. Rapid reforms in agriculture continue. In such a situation, the Prime Minister called on the students to connect their careers with the aspirations of the country. "In this new decade, it is your responsibility to give Brand India a global identity," he said.
The Prime Minister highlighted the role of students in bringing local products to the world. He encouraged ordinary people as well to take part in solving this great task: "One of the things you and other people can do is keep up the pressure ... there are going to be some difficult decisions for government".

IIM students can act as a bridge between the Self-reliant India Mission, local products and international partnerships. So they need to find innovative ways to turn local to global. "You need to demonstrate your management skills with the mantra of 'mixing and combining innovation,'" Modi said. He spoke in support of the US Alliance, but said that maintaining some independence was important for the United States.
The whole world has become a global village since the trend of integrating all these technologies with digital connections and starting to work from anywhere. India has undergone a number of reforms over the past few months. "Not only have they accepted the change, they have tried to meet and exceed them," he said. The Prime Minister said the changing approach was affecting demand for management skills. Instead of top-down or top-heavy management skills, there is now a need for collaborative, innovative and transformative management.
With the advent of boats and algorithms, technology management is now just as important as human management. Mr. Modi advised the students to research how the Covid crisis could be managed in a comprehensive and innovative way in India. He encouraged ordinary people as well to take part in solving this great task: "One of the things you and other people can do is keep up the pressure ... there are going to be some difficult decisions for government".
He was pleased that the country had adopted a long-term solution to the Saxons Abyssinian solution. He cited examples of increasing the number of Jan Dhan Bank accounts and LPG connections. The Prime Minister said that in 2014, the LPG connection was only 55 per cent, but today it has risen to 7 per cent. "It simply came to our notice then. "Management is not just about running a big company, it's about solving problems in public life," he said.
"In order to be a good manager, it is important to understand the problems in the country," he said. For this reason, there must be ample opportunities in higher education institutions and they should not be confined to their own expertise alone, the Prime Minister said, adding that a comprehensive, multifaceted and holistic approach to national education is changing with the passage of time in the professional education system.
