Smt. Nirmala Birla
Smt. Nirmala Birla envisioned Modern High School International as a progressive, leading-edge institution aiming to provide to students of Kolkata an opportunity to study an international curriculum. With this vision, MHSI was created and with its state-of-the-art infrastructure it opened its doors for students interested in pursuing the Cambridge or the IB Diploma Programme.
As an educationist, Mrs. Birla believes in providing quality education; this inspiration has led to the growth of two leading educational institutions:
Both these schools are recognised as premier institutions in their respective cities.
Smt. Birla is also known for her philanthropic disposition. In addition to being the inspiration for all industrial and public welfare endeavours of her late husband Shri GP Birla, she has been directly associated with the functioning and development of various charitable institutions.
