Founder’s Vision

The Vision of Our Founder

Sri Dharmarathnakara Rai Bahadur Arcot Narrainsawmy Mudaliar was a man ahead of his time. He believed that education was the greatest tool for social transformation. His vision was not just about building institutions but about creating opportunities for the underprivileged — breaking barriers of caste, class, and gender.

His commitment to inclusive education led him to establish institutions for Hindu boys, Dalit students, and young women, long before society recognized the importance of access and equality in learning. His ideals remain at the heart of RBANMS’ educational philosophy.

His legacy is built on three enduring pillars:

• 1. Empowerment through Knowledge – Education should be accessible to all, equipping individuals with skills and wisdom to lead fulfilling lives.
• 2. Social Equality – Every person, regardless of background, deserves an equal opportunity to learn and grow.
• 3. Ethical Leadership – Knowledge must be accompanied by a strong moral foundation to create responsible citizens who contribute to society.

RBANM’s Educational Charities stands as a living testament to his dream — a thriving institution that nurtures young minds, instills values, and paves the way for a just and equitable society. His vision continues to inspire generations, reminding us that education is not merely about learning, but about lifting others and shaping a better world.
