Developing
In Short: President Droupadi Murmu has called for holding teachers in high esteem on Teachers' Day, echoing the sentiments of India's second president, Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan.
President Droupadi Murmu has written a message to honor teachers on Teachers' Day, emphasizing the importance of respecting and valuing them. This sentiment aligns with the wishes of India's second president, Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, who wished his birthday be observed as Teachers' Day.
Radhakrishnan's vision for teachers is rooted in ancient Indian texts, which prescribe that educators should love their students as their own children, treat them equally, remain patient, and focus on their well-being. These principles underscore the role of teachers in instilling knowledge, skills, values, and motivation in students.
On this Teachers' Day, President Murmu expressed gratitude to all teachers who contribute to the education of millions of students in India. His message reflects a deep appreciation for the role of teachers in shaping the future of the nation.
