The International Business Council (IBC), New Delhi, has presented the Rajiv Gandhi Excellence Award to Montessori Educational Institutions founder and correspondent V. Koteswaramma.

The award was presented recently for her outstanding achievements in the field of education. “I got many awards and the new award has added one more feather in the cap of Montessori Institutions. I thank the college and school principals, headmasters and teaching and non-teaching staff for their commitment and hard work, which helped me in achieving the awards,” said Koteswaramma, who expressed satisfaction at bagging the Rajiv Gandhi Excellence Award.

Montessori Colleges Joint Secretary Avirneni Rajiv, Degree College Principal R. Padmavathi, Junior College Principal Y. Mangatayaru, B.Ed College Principal G. Padma Tulasi, High School headmistress K. Suhasini and other staff felicitated the institutions’ founder for her achievement, at a programme held on the college premises on Friday.

Montessori Educational Institutions, which started with a meagre staff and students about six decades ago, is now running many schools and colleges for girls, said Ms. Koteswaramma.
