India as a Nation is Celebrating the Teacher’s Day, today on 5th September 2009. The day is celebrated to commemorate the Birthday of Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan, who was started his career as a Teacher and ended up being the President of India itself.
It is a day on which the Teachers are Greeted by the Students and appreciated by their managements, for their selfless role in educating the Students at Schools and Colleges. There is no denying fact that the Teachers are important catalyst to Educational, Scientific, Economic, Social and Cultural Development of the Society. They are involved in a process of ‘Moulding Minds’ right from a Tender age itself and late on go on to be Mentors for their students.
The Society has to be more generous in taking up opportunities to recognize the role of the Teachers. The Government Teachers are well paid, The Lecturers are heavily paid, it is only that the Teachers in the Private Un - aided Schools and Private Colleges that are exploited with paltry salary. The workload and working conditions are also matters of concern.
India, they say is a Land of Complexities…………is this reason for the Teachers and the Teaching Community to live in a highly Complex and Competitive World?.
