THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE PURPOSE
Chairman
The story of Gnanodaya begins with Dr. T. Arangannal. A distinguished leader and the driving force behind the entire Gnyanamani Group of Institutions, he has spent over two decades building an educational ecosystem serving communities across Namakkal District.
A recipient of the Rashtriya Vidya Saraswati Puraskar and an honorary Doctorate from the University of Sri Lanka, Dr. Arangannal is widely respected for bringing quality education to a region that was long underserved.
His vision: build a school where children in semi-urban Tamil Nadu could access the same CBSE standard found in India’s best metro cities.
Chairman
If Dr. Arangannal built the institution, Mrs. P. Malaleena gave it its soul. Her unwavering commitment and strategic foresight established the strong ethical and academic foundations that define Gnanodaya.
Student-centred learning, inclusive growth, and a school culture where every child feels seen — these are the direct result of her influence on the institution’s mission and values.
Vice-Chairperson
Representing the next generation of leadership, Ms. Madhuvanthinie brings contemporary vision and strategic insight to Gnanodaya’s continued growth.
Her focus is forward-looking: aligning the school with global academic standards, fostering innovation, and ensuring students are prepared for the world beyond board exams.
Principal
The person who translates leadership vision into everyday classroom reality. Mrs. Roselin Babitha directly oversees all academic operations, faculty development, and student performance.
Under her leadership, the teaching faculty has earned a reputation for dedication beyond the syllabus — teachers who know their students personally and take pride in every child’s progress.
