Panchayats and Rural Development Minister Gopal Bhargava said that ideal society can be established only through respect to teachers. He also urged teachers to teach with dedication to help India to make it to the top in the world. Minister Bhargava was addressing a teachers’ felicitation function at Sant Hirdaram Girls College, Bairagarh on Wednesday.
School Education Minister Paras Jain, State BJP president and MP Nandkumar Singh Chouhan were also present on the occasion. Teachers of Huzur tahsil were felicitated at the function with citations and shawls.
Bhargava said that teacher’s life is like worship through which next generation is groomed. Comparing teacher’s life with candle, Bhargava said that like a candle removes darkness by melting, in the same manner a teacher spreads light in society making sacrifices. He said that society gives deity-like honour to teachers due these sacrifices. School Education Minister Paras Jain said that the state government has taken a number of decisions in the interest of teachers. He urged teachers to impart quality teaching. The School Education Minister also praised efforts of MlA Rameshwar Sharma.
Nandkumar Singh Chouhan said that teachers have been given pride of place in Indian culture. He said that India can emerge as world guru only through honour of teachers. Referring to India’s ancient education, Chouhan said that India had universities like Takshila and Nalanda at the time when culture just started growing in the world. He urged teachers to cooperate in dissemination of education. MlA Rameshwar Sharma and social workers Siddhabhau also spoke on the occasion.
