Uttarakhand Governor, Smt Margaret Alva, has conveyed her greetings to teachers of the state on the occasion of Teacher’s Day.
Specially congratulating the teachers of the state who have been honoured with the President’s award, the governor said that teachers played a crucial role in moulding the character of the younger generation.
“Today is the birthday of the great scholar, the second president of India Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan who was a phenomenal teacher, philosopher, writer and orator,” said the governor.
She said the work of a teacher was specially challenging today as with technological advancement, information is readily available to the students. “The teacher’s role must be that of a person who ignites young minds and hearts with the light of true knowledge. The students in turn should treat their teachers with respect. Teacher’s day gives students an opportunity to show love and gratitude to their teachers. Let us all remember, on this day, the teachers who made a difference to our lives, who showed us the way when we needed guidance” she added.
She conveyed her best wishes and warm greetings to all teachers on this occasion.
