A POWERFUL VISION
Manipal is like the Nalanda of yore. I am happy to see engineering,

medicine and other disciplines being taught in the same campus, an
ideal environment for research to flourish.
Late Dr APJ Abdul Kalam

Former President of India
The right thing to do for marginalized society would be to provide

them education. To do this at a scale needed, we need to enlist private
initiative as much as possible. The example of Manipal serves as a
beacon which could guide both Central and State Governments on
what can be done.
Dr Montek Singh Ahluwalia

Former Dy Chairman,
Planning Commission
When Dr TMA Pai decided to build a medical college in Manipal, it

sounded like an impossible dream. In the space of 50 years, Manipal
was transformed into an education capital, which is proof enough of a
powerful vision.
