“The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.” — William Arthur Ward

It is with profound gratitude and a sense of sacred responsibility that I step into the role of Principal at People’s College, Buguda—an institution that has long been a beacon of education and character-building in southern Odisha.

More than a center for academic pursuit, this college is a family—bound not merely by profession, but by purpose. Our faculty and staff exemplify a camaraderie that transcends duty, embracing one another with humility, support, and shared vision. In this nurturing environment, students don’t just learn; they flourish under the guidance of educators who inspire by example.

Buguda, with its storied legacy, folk culture, literature, natural beauty, and spiritual soul, offers more than geographical charm—it gifts our institution with a cultural ethos rooted in reverence and resilience.

As we stride into a new chapter, our vision is to elevate People’s College into a cradle of creative excellence and transformative learning. We aspire to blend the timeless values of spirituality with the demands of modern academia—fostering graduates who carry not just degrees, but dignity, empathy, and purpose.

I invite every stakeholder—students, parents, alumni, and the broader community—to walk with us in this journey. Let us make this institution not only a temple of learning, but a sanctuary of inspiration.

Warm regards,
Dr. Purusottam Mishra
Principal
