Teachers Day Special
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.

    Since historical times, India has been the breeding ground for various innovative and non-conventional institutes—some of which are remembered even today because of their impact on human behavior and society in general. Even today, educationists consider some of the famous ancient Indian learning institutes, such as Taxila (now in Pakistan) and Nalanda, as one of the highest seats of learning. The concept of Gurukuls (a Vedic school where students, or disciples as they were called, lived along with their teachers) was pioneered in India. Here the “shishya” (the student) devoted his early years in the hands of the “guru” (the teacher)—who guided his entire childhood till he attained maturity and passed on all his learning and wisdoms acquired during the course of life. The common theme around all these delivery methods was to impart an all-round personality development and character building to the individual. And it was this holistic approach towards education and life in general, that India could sustain its lead on economic, social and political front for a long time.…
