In our ancient culture, Guru has been given the status of God as no work was completed without Guru and the relationship of teacher with student was constant and from this point of view his role as a guide was important,” he added.

The Governor expressed concern over lack of moral values and character, be it personal or social, lag the nation behind and stated that therefore, this day was a day of introspection.

The process of making good human beings should be the basis of education and the overall objective of development of children was to build a strong nation, so teachers have the obligation to imbibe moral values to the students, he said.
