Biography
Maeilanandhan was born as Saminathapuram Krisnasamy Mayilsamy in 1945 in Modakurichi near Erode in the erstwhile Coimbatore district of Madras Presidency (now in Erode district, Tamil Nadu).[1] He was born in a Kongu Vellalar agricultural family.[2] He chose not to pursue agriculture and opened a small general store at Erode in 1966. Over the years, it grew into a ₹ 50 billion business conglomerate involved in diverse activities including poultry farming, manufacture of Ayurveda and Siddha medicines, fertilizers and animal feeds.[3] The conglomerate includes the following constituent entities: SKM Egg Products,[4][5] SKM Animal Feeds and Foods,[6] SKM Siddha and Ayurvedic Medicines[1][7] and SKM Health and Mind Welfare Charity Trust.[1]
Maeilanandhan serves as the President of the World Community Service Centre (WCSC), a non profit spiritual organization founded by Vethathiri Maharishi involved in the education of yoga and meditation techniques.[8] The organization conducts welfare programmes covering various village panchayats across India.[9] The charitable trust he founded in 1989 has adopted multiple villages to support them with basic infrastructure.[3][9]
In 2013, he was awarded Padma Shri, the fourth highest civilian award by the Government of India for his contributions to social service.[10]
