Forty-eight-year-old Mishra received the National Award for Teachers-2017 in New Delhi on September 5. He was recognised for his contribution to the field of teaching (Science and Mathematics) through simple methodology.

Mishra served in many schools of Koraput district in the past 20 years and currently posted at Jeypore High School.
His book ‘Experimento’ was published in 2015. The science practical handbook by Mishra gives a pictorial presentation on how various science experiments can be done with locally available resources. His research-based articles have also been published in various national and international journals.
He has also been prepared a module of the meritorious students of backward areas of Koraput district, who are eligible to get national merit scholarship.
