Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that teachers are rendering a very important service to the nation, and the responsibility of preparing today’s youth for Viksit Bharat rests in their hands. Interacting with teachers who were conferred with the National Teachers Awards in New Delhi at his residence yesterday, Mr. Modi emphasised that we all should make efforts to prepare capable citizens and youth for Viksit Bharat.
The Prime Minister said that the teachers can take their students on educational tours to explore India’s diversity, which will aid their learning and also help them get to know about their country in a holistic manner. He added that this will boost tourism and give a fillip to the local economy as well. The Prime Minister also asked the teachers to appraise their students about the ongoing ‘Dekho Apna Desh, People’s Choice’contest so that they can participate in it after a proper study.
The Prime Minister also discussed the impact of the National Education Policy and spoke about the significance of attaining education in one’s mother tongue. He suggested that the teachers can teach local folklore to students in different languages so that they can learn multiple languages and also get exposure to the vibrant culture of India. Prime Minister Modi also suggested that the awardee teachers should connect with each other through social media and share their best practices so that everyone can learn, adapt, and benefit from each other.
