Teacher’s day celebrated on 5th September each year on the occasion of birth of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan who was known as an amazing teacher of his time. In 1962, when Dr. Radhakrishnan became the President of India, he was approached with a request of celebrating his birthday. He said, “Instead of celebrating my birthday, it would be my proud privilege if this day is observed as Teachers’ Day”. This showed his love for the teaching profession.
