IHM Ranchi Student Creates History with Bronze Medal at India Skills Competition 2025

Demonstrating exceptional technical expertise, creative presentation, and high-quality performance, Ms. Nitin Sanga, a student of the Institute of Hotel Management (IHM) Ranchi, has achieved a remarkable milestone by securing a Bronze Medal at the national level in the Bakery trade at the prestigious India Skills Competition 2025.

This esteemed competition is organized by the National Skill Development Corporation under the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Government of India. The primary objective of the competition is to promote skill development, encourage vocational excellence, and create awareness among youth about skill-based careers. It also aims to enhance the capabilities of young individuals across the country and prepare them for global competitions. The event serves as the final qualifying platform for WorldSkills Shanghai 2026, often referred to as the “Olympics of Skills,” where participants compete across 63 diverse skill categories, including traditional trades, emerging technologies, and service excellence.

Ms. Sanga, a student of the three-year B.Sc. in Hospitality and Hotel Administration program at IHM Ranchi, impressed the judges with her creativity, technical proficiency, and excellence in bakery arts. She progressed to this level by winning at the state and zonal levels before showcasing her outstanding talent on the national stage. Following this achievement, she will undergo advanced training and represent India at the international platform in Shanghai, China.

Her accomplishment is not only a proud moment for the institute but also an inspiration for aspiring professionals in hospitality and bakery arts.

Notably, last year, Mr. Harsh Ravindran, a student of IHM Ranchi, also earned recognition by securing a Medal of Excellence at the IndiaSkills Competition 2024. Winning national-level accolades for two consecutive years stands as a testament to the institute’s commitment to high-quality education, training, and mentorship.

Expressing his delight on this achievement, Dr. Bhupesh Kumar, Principal of IHM Ranchi, congratulated Ms. Sanga and her mentor. He stated that this accomplishment is a matter of immense pride for the entire institution, especially as IHM Ranchi continues to stand out among premier IHMs across the country. He further emphasized that the institute remains dedicated to providing excellent training, modern infrastructure, and preparing students for global competitions.

Dr. Kumar added that such achievements are the result of the relentless efforts and dedication of students, faculty, and trainers. He expressed confidence that IHM Ranchi students will continue to excel at national and international platforms, bringing laurels to the institute, the state, and the nation.
