2minutes speech on TEACHER'S DAY 2020

Dr. Radhakrishnan

 The mere fact that we are all connected 
in this event makes me feel so elated and motivated to express my thoughts on this unconventional yet eventful day today. Good Morning and a very happy Teacher's Day to all.

                          A teacher is someone who teaches, and mind you, it is not just academics. Not everyone can be a teacher, because despite everything what a teacher teaches first is the way of life.
              Though teachers day is globally celebrated on 5th October, in India we celebrate it on 5th of September, to commemorate the birth anniversary of Dr. S Radhakrishnan, the second president of Republic of india and a profound teacher himself. He believed that "children are the future of the nation and it is only in the teachers hands that could shape it".
                                    It is well said that "Adversity shows one's potential".
These crucial times had their unique problems. We had to change our methods, increase our technical know-how. But challenges came, and we conquered it. And the result is here, we students and teachers being so connected even when being apart. It is all because of the hardwork, dedication and flexibility of our teachers for this drastically changing world. And think how lucky we students are to have such teachers around us, providing everything they can to you.


             Dear students, we must understand the importance of our teachers and praise them, not only today but whenever we look up to them. Seeking your blessings dear teachers, not only on behalf of myself or the students, but for all those whom your presence has made an impact, knowingly or unknowingly. 
Thankyou and a very Happy Teacher's Day again..!!

2minutes on CHILDREN: THE ASSETS OF A NATION

The wealth of a nation is not so much in its economical and natural resources, but in the quality of the children. Children are like clay, who can be molded into the most desirable way as they are the sure rein holders of tomorrow. They have boundless stores of energy, willpower, capability, zeal and enthusiasm. The nation develops faster if its children develop better. India has the largest child and youth population in the world. It is therefore, the responsibility of the society to engage youth into playing a constructive role and educate them morally, culturally and academically. But nowadays, the mindset of people has taken a negative shift. Children are not viewed as nation builders but as sources with financial returns . In most cases, both the parents these days are working, which in turn, makes family time reduced to nothing and the child becomes morally weak and prone to depressions. It is therefore very necessary to develop a child according to his tastes. Greta Thunbe...
