Sarala Birla Academy, ranked the number 2 Boys’ Boarding School in the country by EducationWorld, is the brainchild of Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla, the chairman of The Aditya Birla Group. It is named after the late Dr. Sarala Birla, his grandmother. An eminent educationist, Dr. Sarala Birla has made immense contribution to the field of education over the last many decades in a very quiet, low-profile-way. Guided by her vision, the family runs some of the best schools in the country. According to her, "Knowledge for the sake of knowledge without benefitting 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." Her vision is one of the guiding lights of SBA.
