Addressing the event, MP Governor Mangubhai Patel asserted that teachers are the creators of an ideal society and country. He said the importance of teachers can be understood from the fact that parents give birth to children and the teachers make kids ideal citizens by imparting them knowledge, virtues, and traditions.
The Governor urged teachers to focus not only on imparting education but also on equipping children to contribute to making India a developed nation and a world leader.
The Governor and the CM felicitated several teachers on the occasion. They also transferred a sum of Rs 324 crore by a single click into the accounts of 54 lakh students for school uniforms.
Lord Macaulay, born Thomas Babington, played a key role in introducing the English Language and the British education system to India during British rule. In 1835, English was made the official language of the government and courts and was subsequently adopted as the official medium of education in India.
