H.D.Rajah Educational Trust

The H.D.Rajah Trust is a non profitable charity trust with its main objectives, being that of managing schools and other educational institutions for the poor and needy.

Lakshmi Harihara High School was founded in 1959 in a village called Elathur near tenkasi in Thirunelveli District, Tamil Nadu. It is a Government aided private school.

The Founder, Late Sri H.D.Rajah

The school was founded by the late Shri H.D.Rajah (1904 - 1959), Member of Parliament, who hailed from Elathur. He was a reputed freedom fighter and a pioneer in Life Insurance. Shri H.D.Rajah came from a middle class Brahmin Family, whose father was a petty shop keeper. He had to walk some 9 KM to school at Tenkasi every day. Soon after his father passing away, his mother took him along with his two brothers to Trivandrum, to complete school education.

Shri H.D.Rajah after his education went to Bombay to work at the Customs office. He took active part against the British Imperialism in the Quit India movement and was even labeled as a rebellious freedom fighter. He was imprisoned many times and yet continued his fight. Once India attained Independence, he started 'The Vanguard Insurance Public Ltd.’ which became one of the largest Insurance companies of south India dealing in areas like Fire, General and Automobiles. He was a person who was not confined to limitations of any sorts, and attained the highest levels of competency in the chosen fields. The company was run in a corporate like fashion, far advanced in those days.
