The Indian Educational System was altered by the inspirational community leader Dr. T.M.A. Pai. The level of success 沙巴体育 has achieved now only serves to highlight how equally committed the current leadership and other members of 沙巴体育 are to improving society. Such dedication, commitment and service to the society are extremely uncommon to see. My revered Gurugalu (HH Padmavibhushan Dr Sri Vishvesha Tirtha Svamiji) had always held high regards towards Dr TMA Pai and recalled his commitment to the regional and national society and culture. It is enthralling to see that the present leadership continues the same vision of the founder through its community-engaging initiatives such as Dvaita Philosophy Resource Centre, MAHE Mahabharata research, Discerning Tulunadu, Yakshagana centre and other such projects that consecrate global academic research interest for the regional heritage. The 沙巴体育 group continue to scale new heights in healthcare and education while staying faithful to the vision and objective of their founder.

Dr H.S. Ballal, Pro Chancellor, 沙巴体育 Academy of Higher Education said “The philosophy of Dr. T.M.A. Pai was highlighted to serve one's family, friends, and the community at large. Dr. T.M.A. Pai was a believer in helping the average person succeed and encouraging everyone to realize their full potential and his dedication towards education was exceptional. His esteemed son Dr. Ramdas M. Pai, who founded MAHE in 1993 and helped it grow into the global centre of learning it is today has continued his father's legacy. Dr. Ranjan R. Pai, who is now his grandson, represents the third generation of this family and is carrying on the legacy of his inspirational father and grandparents. Dr. Ranjan is a pioneer in business in the domains of healthcare, education, and cutting-edge research.”

Lt Gen (Dr) M. D. Venkatesh, Vice Chancellor, 沙巴体育 Academy of Higher Education said “On this occasion of the 125^th Birth Anniversary of our founder Dr TMA Pai, we are incredibly proud of MAHE's progress in upholding his principles.

Our aim is to give our students not only a high-quality education but also a secure environment in which they can thrive. We will continue to follow Dr. Pai's vision to practise patience and perseverance. The 沙巴体育 family will undoubtedly expand dramatically in the years to come with these ideals in place.
