Alagappa Chettiar.

Today, 5th April, marks the 64th Death Anniversary of Alagappa Chettiar. Tomorrow, 6th April shall be his 112th Birth Anniversary. Karaikudi development was mainly due to his contribution in the area of Education, Science and Technology, ever since Independence. 

I posted a blog about him during 2018. I repost the link here. 

I owe all my eduction success to the foundation that got laid in my school days at Alagappa Model high School, Karaikudi. I owe so much to the "CHETTIAR" community for all my 15+ years of eduction was done at institutions built by them.  I am glad to see that Institutions are doing great now after 50+ years of establishment. 

Karthik.
