I, extend my warm greetings and best wishes to all teachers across the Andaman and Nicobar Islands on the occasion of Teacher’s Day”, which marks the birth anniversary of a teacher who became President – Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. Teachers’ Day is an occasion when we recognize the devoted services of the teachers of our nation, especially our Islands. Let us show our respect, gratefulness and admiration to our teachers for making us what we are today. On this day, we celebrate the work being done by teachers all across the nation, as well as remember the life of a great educationist and our former President Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. Teachers have always been given an extraordinary place and reverence in our society, as they prepare children to be active and accountable participants in society. This profession is noble as it involves imparting the precious gift of knowledge to the students and I appeal to the teaching fraternity to reorient themselves and develop new methodologies for laying a strong foundation in students to make these Islands a torch bearer for the rest of the Nation. And students should show utmost respect and devotion to teachers who in turn must dedicate themselves to the service of their students.
