Teachers Day
Teacher’s Day In India

Since times immemorial, Indians have respected and idolized their teachers. Earlier, we used to call our teachers
'Guru' and now it's the contemporary 'Sir' or 'Madam'. Nevertheless, the role of teachers has remained the same.
They were, are and will continue to be our guiding light, creating conditions conducive to our overall development. We will always be thankful to them for their constructive support. It is as an expression of this gratitude only that we celebrate Teacher's Day in India.

Teacher's Day is a tribute to the hard work and devotion of the teachers all year long, to educate a child. In India, teacher’s day is celebrated on 5th of September every year. Indian Teacher’s Day is dedicated to Dr. Sarvepalli
Radhakrishnan, who was a zealous advocate of education and one of the greatest scholars and teachers of all times, apart from being the first Vice President and the second President of India. As a mark of respect to this phenomenal teacher, his birthday came to be observed as Teacher’s Day in the country.

On Teacher's day, students across India dress up as their teachers and take lectures in classes that are assigned to the teachers they represent. Sometimes, teachers sit in their classes as students, trying to relive the time when they, themselves, were students. Also, functions are organized in schools on the special day, where students present dance performances, dramas, and various other programs to entertain their teachers. This day provides for a healthy interaction between teachers and students as well.
Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan

Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was one of the most distinguished diplomats, scholars and teachers of India, apart from being the first Vice President and the second President of the country. As a tribute to this great teacher, his birthday is observed as Teacher's Day across India. As a matter of fact, when his students and friends asked him for the permission to

    All throughout the history of our great nation, there have been many leaders who left their mark with their invaluable contribution. I could very proudly name many such leaders starting from our very own “Bapu”, or Chacha Nehru or Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. But one such great leader whom I would like to talk about today was arguably the most powerful leader who followed the footsteps of Mahatma Gandhi and gave shape to form ONE robust union from numerous small & big princely states. The robust union whom we call “INDIA” – our great nation. He was the architect to bring unite people from Kashmir to Kanyakumari and from Junagadh to Guwahati to form our great nation. Respected Teachers & Friends, I am talking about none other than The Iron Man of India, who was called as “SARDAR” respectfully by everybody although his real name was Vallabhbhai Jhaverbhai Patel. He was born on 31 October 1875 in Nadiad, British India. He was a lawyer by profession before he joined the congress under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi. He and Bapu were the best of friends. He fought relentlessly the freedom struggle with Mahatma Gandhi and made his presence felt during the non co-operative movement. He went on to become the president of Congress Party and led the freedom struggle aggressively under the guidance of mahatma Gandhi. Just before independence he stepped down from the post of president at the request of Mahatma Gandhi, although all state units of the Congress Party wanted him to continue. He was the strong leader who picked up the challenge of integrating all princely states and territories including difficult one like Hyderabad and Junagadh and form our great nation. He became the first Home Minister of Independent India and he is still considered to be the best Home Minister ever. Apart from his political victories he also empowered the poor milk farmers from Anand Region who were getting exploited at the hands of middleman cartels. He showed them the path to form…

    Nehru was the central figure of this new India. So powerful was his personality and its hold on the people of his country and even abroad, that he was almost unquestioned as the top-most leader of India, and its prime minister. As the son of an equally brilliant father, as the disciple, favored son, and successor to India’s moral and ethical leader Mahatma Gandhi, as a modernist, socialist, and humanist, as the second-in-command to Gandhi in India’s freedom movement, the most popular leader of the Indian National Congress party, a first-rate author, orator and organizer, Jawaharlal Nehru was the political role model and cultural icon, especially for the youth of India.…

    To begin with, sending presents would defile the pure relationship between students and teachers. As students in a class definitely have different backgrounds, some of their parents must be rich, while some may be in poor economic condition. Thus, the teacher would receive all kinds of gifts which vary from a DIY card to a card worth thousands yuan. On this occasion, students who send cheap things like trinket may feel ashamed and distance themselves from the teacher. Moreover, many parents want the teacher to pay more attention to their children by giving special presents. Such behavior is similar to ‘bribery’, which is unfair. And some teachers are likely to give preference to some students because of the valuable present. As a result, the relationship between students and teachers will get destroyed gradually.…
