| One would
wonder on the words Saint and Soldier connected together and what depict for.
Both words are contrast in nature and have a different style of functioning. Saint
depicts a person with spiritual power and mindful of preaching religion requiring
others too to follow the path of great religious leaders with all humbleness and
tolerance on the one hand, the valour totally opposite to the word to Saint on
the otherthing. And this is the great social reformer Mrs. Shanta Chopra who echoed
the theme of establishing such an educational society which could dispense with
the characteristics of both the inner meanings in a combined form to give it a
united glimpse. With this very noble idea in her mind she wanted to
have such an institution which will produce such a brilliance which could be a
saint at heart and soldier at strength. And ultimately a society in the name and
style of St. Soldier Educational Society came into existance.
