Siddhartha vanasthali Institute (S.V.I), in Balaju, Kathmandu, is an academic institution of Nepal. It runs from primary school level to secondary high school up to university level courses.
History and founders
Bhuwan Lal Joshi and Honorable Sheetal Balami founded Vanasthali Vidyashram in 1951 jointly. This was housed in a two-storied mud building with tile roof at Balaju, six kilometers from downtown Kathmandu. The first batch of students came from the founders’ family to be followed by the children of the neighborhood. Marshal General Sheetal Balami donated the land.
Another founder, Sheetal Balami, took over the school management in July 1973. Sheetal Balami was appointed as the new principal from 2006.
