A quintessentially self – effacing Bengali gentleman exuding charm and elegance, Mr. R.N. Majumder belongs to that rare breed of industrialists who have become icons for budding entrepreneurs. If life is a journey, Mr. Majumder’s life is an epic journey of chasing one after another. He is no rags-to-riches story; it’s story of conquering obstacles and imponderables with remarkable equanimity of mind and of translating dream into reality even when the chips are down. Unassuming yet unperturbed in the face of setbacks, unbending and rigid at times but flexible and accommodating often, he combines an uncanny business acumen with a philanthropic zeal. Born and brought up in a semi – urban area under Burdwan district, R.N. Majumder started his career as a humble motor parts businessman. Soon he began to ride the crest of a wave of popularity in the market. While manufacturing leaf springs, his company Rahul Springs Private Ltd. Acquired ISO 9001 certificate, and got a solid toe hold in the export market in Bangladesh and Sri lanka, Since then there was no looking back for him. But the turning poking is his llife came when he stepped into the education sector by setting up Rahul Foundation in 2002. DITAM, an engineering college, was Rahul Foundation’s first Child. In no time were born four other children popularly known as MID, DCCS, LCD, and DHSSCS. But resting on his laurels is alien to Mr. Majumder’s nature. Manisha International School is his latest dream project. Undoubtedly, it’s another milestone in the history of Rahul Foundation that house all these institutions in the same sprawling complex in an idyllic ambience just by the side of the G.T. Road, Rajbandh. Asking about his plan with Manisha International School, Mr. Majumder say, It’s nothing different from my plans with other institution. My objective is to ensure quality education comparable to international standard at affordable cost for children of the locality in particular and students across the country in general. But being a son of the soil development of the area is a top priority with me’. When reminded that there are quite a number of very good English medium institutions in this industrial region, Mr. Majumder say, I’m fond of accepting challenges. Competition, you know is the of the game you’ve got to be proficient in if you want to survive and sustain your achievement. My aim is to amalgamate the ancient ideals of teaching and learning on the model of shantiketan with the IIT standard high quality education from KG to PG level under the same roof. Scrupulously honest with a spiritual bent of mind, Mr. Majumder thinks he cannot stand idly by while people suffer. He has built up Gouri Devi Memorial Trust to help orphans of Lalbaba Ashram and poor but meritorious children cutting across their caste and creed pursue their educational dreams. Life to his is no empty dream but a mission to fulfill. And Mr. Majumder seems to have found the mission of his life. |
