Cases of misbehaviour and manhandling among students and teachers are prevalent in the campus of various colleges across the city but this teacher’s day marks the beginning of new era as both the sides had decided to bury their grievances and work together.
The members of students union and college administration have decided that in the coming time they will solve any conflict with mutual understanding instead of adopting any violence path.
Different student union groups of the city have planned to celebrate teacher’s day in different ways. Some have decided to offer flowers while some have prepared attractive greeting cards adorned with captivities and touchy quotes and messages and others with various cultural programmes to pay reverence and gratitude to teachers for their selfless effort in shaping their career and enriching the education system.
National Students Union of India (NSUI) State President Shewaz Ahmed said, “Though sometimes out of rage we misbehave with our teachers due to opinion clashes but we respect our teachers. On this occasion we will present rose to our teachers and seek blessing from them.” He further added, “We will continue our struggle in the interest of students.”
All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU) had made elaborate preparation for making this day special for teachers. Member of AJSU Harish Kumar said, “The ceremony will begin with a warm teacher’s day speech paying respect and thanking teachers for their contribution followed by a range of colourful cultural programmes. We will also tell our teachers that we all love them and in future will always maintain the dignity of teacher-student relationship.”
On the hand teachers also feel that such incidents are aberration and fault lies on the shoulders of both ends. Ranchi University (RU) Pro Vice Chancellor (VC) M Raziuddin said, “In present time also the relationship of teacher and students are as sacred as it use to be in early time. Incidents which occurred in recent time are isolated incidents.”
“It will not be wise to announce only one side as defaulter as both the sides have some loop holes. We have decided to handle the mater by following the path of non-violence in near future,” he added. Marwari college professor feels that this teacher’s day is will set a new example in front of the society. Professor of Commerce Department Marwari College Dr Jitendra said, “The image of teacher-student relationship has taken a negative route in the eyes of common people. In the coming time we will show them that the bounding of teacher and students still remains pious.”
