Hello All,

I wish you and your teachers, family, friends, near and dear........

A very happy and honoring Teachers' Day wishes (05/09).

Teachers’ day in India is celebrated on September 5th of every year to commemorate the birthday of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. He was the first Vice President of India (1952-1962), and the second President of India (1962-1967). When he became President, some of his students and friends requested him to allow them to celebrate his birthday, September 5th. He replied, "Instead of celebrating my birthday, it would be my proud privilege if 5th September is observed as Teachers' Day."

His birthday has since been celebrated as Teachers' Day in India. Teachers’ day is also celebrated in various other countries across the world on various dates, a day which is intended to be a special day for the appreciation of teachers. Also, World Teachers' Day is held annually on 5th October since 1994 to commemorate teachers’ organizations worldwide.

On this day, students show their appreciation to the teachers by wishing them and presenting the gifts including cards and flowers.

తస్మై శ్రీ గురవే నమః

Happy Teachers' Day....

Many many happy returns of the day.

All the best and take care….
