About
Kerala Varma Pazhassiraja( 1753-1805) who belonged to the Kottayam royal family in the Kottayam( Malabar) region of the present Kannur District in Kerala was an epitome of courage and bravery as he took on the Mysore rulers and later the mighty East India Company.Pazhassiraja staunchly rebelled against the British and their atrocities against the natives of Kerala in the early years far before the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857 and made a name for himself in the history of Kerala. He can rightly be called Keralasimham ( Lion of Kerala) who has a pride of place among the pioneering patriots and early freedom fighters in South India.However for reasons unknown, in the annals of Indian History, his contributions have met with oblivion.
The arrival of Pazhassiraja Universal Public School is a historical and cultural course correction under the initiative of the Pazhassiraja educational and Charitable Trust which is devoted to perpetuating Pazhassi legacy in the field of human capital Development.
