"It was a matter of pride for
all South Indians that the government of Maharashtra had chosen to honour guru
Rajee Narayan with the Maharashtra Rajya Samskrutik Puraskar for the field of
dance for 1996-97.
"Rajee Narayan established her
institution Nritya Geethanjali in 1965, when she migrated to Mumbai. Branches
of the institution have since been established in Australia, Canada and the US,
headed by her disciples. In recognition of her knowledge and experience, she
was appointed a member of the dance faculty of the Mumbai University, a
position she has held for over 20 years. She has also been a paper-setter and
examiner for the BFA and MFA courses of the university through the years."
