According to official sources, the institute will work with an IIT alumnus to cultivate diamonds in the laboratory. After the proposal is approved, the IIT Bhubaneswar will establish the centre, according to an official.
At IIT Bhubaneswar, he inaugurated the Virtual and Augmented Reality Centre of Excellence. This CoE will expedite digital transformation across disciplines, stimulate application-driven research, and stimulate entrepreneurship.

In accordance with the tenets of the national education policy (NEP), he interacted with newly-hired faculty members and encouraged them to instill social responsibilities in young minds and also prepare them to become global citizens.
He urged the IIT Bhubaneswar staff to undertake a major tree-planting initiative by July of this year in order to make the campus sustainable and green.
