Dr. Sarala Birla
The academy has been named after Dr. Sarala Birla, grandmother
of Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla, Chairman of the Aditya Birla
Group. An eminent educationist, Dr. Sarala Birla has made
immense contribution in the field of education in the
last three decades in a very quiet, low profile way. Under
her stewardship, the family runs some of the best day
schools in the country.
According to her, "Knowledge for the sake of knowledge
without benefiting fellow beings is a dead end, and only
leads to the blind alley of frustration. Education is
a meaningless ritual, unless it moulds the character of
students and imparts in them a strong sense of values.
Educational institutions have to ensure that students
are so educated that they are developed both physically
and mentally to build a unique nation. We are proud of
our ancient heritage and we have to ensure that our future
is no less glorious."
