On the occasion, Dr Suborno Bose, Founder of IIHS, said, "The North East of India and Siliguri, which is the Gateway to the North East, are the most welcoming places with the most hospitable people. I've visited the nicest countries in the world, and the people of the North East are the most welcoming and hospitable of all. This is why we chose Siliguri for the first IIHS training centre. This is part of the Government of India's Skill India mission. We are collaborating with Skill India and THSC to train hundreds of skilled hospitality workers for India."
