Dr. Samanta expressed his deepest gratitude to the Chancellor for the honour, besides the VC and the University Syndicate. "All are aware of my life that is dedicated to the service of others. As a recognition of my life, work and accomplishments, I have been conferred many accolades and awards. However, some awards are extra special, like this one. I am elated that Utkal University, my own alma mater is conferring Honorary D. Litt. Degree on me, thereby making it my 50^th honorary doctorate, the highest for any Indian. I dedicate this award to my hero, my mother, and all her struggles and sacrifice. It is the Almighty's blessings and good wishes of the people that have helped me reach where I am today. Their wishes continue to give me strength to dream more for the betterment of society," Dr. Samanta said in his comments.

He was recently awarded an honorary doctorate from Birla Global University and also received an honorary degree from Berhampur University.
