Lucknow. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, on Saturday, stated that respect for teachers signifies respect for the current and future generations of the country. Awakening human sensitivities in children is a teacher’s ultimate duty.
Addressing the ‘Shikshak Samman Samaroh’ at the prestigious educational institution City Montessori School (CMS) located in Gomti Nagar Extension, the Chief Minister said, “We need to make the art of teaching more engaging through small proverbs and continually pursue new research in this field.”
He paid humble tribute to Dr. Jagdish Gandhi, the founder of CMS and praised Dr. Bharti Gandhi, the co-founder and chairperson of CMS, for her role in establishing this great institution in the state capital, Lucknow, along with Dr. Gandhi, who came from Aligarh.
This institution provides a nurturing environment for thousands of students, he stated. Yogi noted that Dr. Jagdish Gandhi was a person who never gave up even in adverse situations and shared some personal anecdotes about their relationship.
Honoring those who are building the future of the country is a matter of great respect in itself, the Chief Minister remarked. “Addressing the challenges within teaching systems demands dedicated effort. We attain inner fulfilment only through hard work. Teachers should strive to make education engaging and shift students away from monotonous classes. Continuous research in teaching methods is essential. Teachers must also ensure that children can easily grasp their lessons”, he added.
Reflecting on his student life, CM Yogi stressed the importance of making education enjoyable through the use of small proverbs. He underscored the necessity of preparing children for healthy competition while being nurturing their individual abilities. “Children should not be forced into competition but should be gradually prepared for it”, he emphasized.
The Chief Minister lauded the CMS’ experienced leadership. Thousands of families send their children to CMS without hesitation because they know the education provided here will shape a bright future for their children, he pointed out.
He remarked, “While it’s admirable to groom our children for roles like IAS and IPS officers, it’s crucial they also grow into patriotic citizens. We need to nurture empathy and sensitivity in our children.”
Yogi extended appreciation to the CMS management committee for organizing the event and expressed hope that the students graduating from school will make a substantial impact with their talents both in the country and worldwide.
On this occasion, CMS teachers and officials associated with the management committee were present.
