A person named Sarvepalli
Radhakrishnan was the
second President of India.
It was his birthday that was
the chosen day to celebrate
Teacher’s Day and that’s how
the culture began.
Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan
has been a true inspiration
in our History as he was a
philosopher and professor who
was a ball of energy and was
awarded the Bharat Ratna for
being a good civilian.
He was a Telugite, born on
5th September 1988. He got a
Master’s Degree in Philosophy
and taught in Calcutta, Madras,
and Mysore.
He was loved by students
and was the Vice-Chancellor
in Banaras and Andhra
during his time.
This was after he became the
President, on his birthday, his
students and friends wanted
to celebrate it. However, he
gave them a better idea of
celebrating 5th September
as Teacher’s Day instead of
celebrating it as his birthday.
In this way, he wanted to
express gratitude to his
teachers who contributed to
shaping him up.
Celebrating on a special day
is the least we can do for
our Teacher’s. They deserve
appreciation for how they
invest energy and make
efforts to turn is into bright
students someday.
In the Indian culture, schools
and colleges perform an
entire event for their teacher’s
and make special efforts to gift
them.
