Sri Ram Nallamani Yadava College of Arts and Science is a pioneering and vibrant institution located at the foothills of the Podhigai range belonging to the Western Ghats. It is situated at a distance of a few kilometers from both Tenkasi and the well-known Courtallam, known for the beautiful waterfalls in southern Tamil Nadu. Ever since 1994, under the philanthropic management and visionary leadership of the late N.N. Nallamani Konar, founder of the Sri Ram Nallamani Yadava Educational Society, the college has been providing quality higher education at a nominal cost to rural youth—not only from the surrounding areas but also from distant parts of Tamil Nadu.
The college is a co-educational institution affiliated with Manonmaniam Sundaranar University, Tirunelveli. Situated on a sprawling campus of over 100 acres, it offers a pollution-free, environmentally serene landscape ideal for academic pursuits. The campus is equipped with well-constructed classrooms, a well-stocked library, modern laboratories, extensive sports grounds, counseling centers, auditoriums, canteens, and separate hostels for boys and girls—along with a range of other essential amenities that support both the academic and personal development of students. The college is an ISO 9001:2008 certified institution and is consistently ranked among the top colleges under the aegis of M.S. University, Tirunelveli. It currently offers 15 diverse undergraduate (UG) programs and 6 postgraduate (PG) programs, catering to a wide range of academic interests.

CHAIRMAN
“Empowering Rural Youth Through Holistic and Quality Education”
At Sri Ram Nallamani Yadava College of Arts and Science, we believe that education is a fundamental human right and the cornerstone of any nation’s progress. In a rapidly evolving world, it is our responsibility to nurture the talents of rural students and provide them with opportunities that allow them to compete on par with global standards. As Chairman of the Nallamani Group of Educational Institutions, my vision is to bridge the gap between rural potential and national development by delivering affordable, value-based, and skill-oriented education. Our mission is to inspire students to unlock their full potential and emerge as responsible, compassionate, and knowledgeable citizens. We offer a holistic education that integrates academic excellence with life skills and ethical values. I encourage every student to cultivate a passion for excellence, stay curious, and remain committed to lifelong learning. Remember, excellence is not a destination—it is a journey. Continue learning, keep growing, and contribute meaningfully to your community and the world.
Wishing you a bright and successful future.
Dr. N. Manimaran, M.A., M.Phil., Ph.D.

Education is one of the most powerful tools for success in today’s world, as it helps overcome the many challenges life presents. It forms the foundation of a strong society by fostering both economic and social prosperity. Education empowers individuals to live with dignity and contribute meaningfully to their communities.
It teaches us not just academic knowledge, but also values, discipline, manners, and the guiding principles of life. In line with this vision, our institutions are committed to providing equal opportunities and access to quality education for all sections of society.
Study like there is no tomorrow, because if you keep postponing, tomorrow might be too late. I encourage each of you to pay attention, work hard, and give your best—for education is the anchor that holds life steady through turbulent times.
Wishing you all a bright and successful future!
Mrs. M. Padmavathy, M.A., M.Ed.
Principal
It is rightly said, “The whole purpose of education is to teach the student how to think, not what to think.” At Sri Ram Nallamani Yadava College of Arts and Science, we firmly believe in this philosophy. It has always been our endeavor to instill the right values in our students—values that nurture independent thinking, ethical conduct, and a strong sense of purpose.
We are committed to shaping not just well-educated graduates, but holistic individuals who are prepared to face real-world challenges with confidence and clarity. Through a balanced focus on academics, values, and co-curricular development, we ensure that our students are empowered to succeed in their careers and contribute meaningfully to society.
As our students step out into the world, we are proud to see them carry with them the strength of character, knowledge, and vision that our institution stands for.
Wishing all our students a bright, purposeful, and successful journey ahead.
