Deputy Chief Minister K. Narayanaswamy has appealed to the teaching fraternity to look beyond teaching and become a ‘role model’ by making a lasting impression on students.
Addressing the ‘Teachers’ Day’ celebrations by garlanding the statue of former President of India Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan here on Monday, Mr. Narayanaswamy explained to the students on how Dr. Radhakrishnan had not only excelled as a teacher, but also evolved to handle multifarious roles to finally become the President of India.
Mr. Narayanaswamy recalled the State government’s efforts to provide quality infrastructure in government schools to take teaching on a par with corporate schools.
