THE TEACHERS DAY 2016 IN INDIA : THE ROLE OF A TEACHER
BEGINS WHEN EVERY THING FAILS AND LIGHT IS REQUIRED(DR ZAKIR HUSAIN,FORMER
PRESIDENT ).
It is the intellectual brand of any society which paves ways
for its growth. Teacher too fall in this class along with scientists, jurists
,lawyers, varsity professors, writers, authors, poets and now journalists in a
free country, artists and army. All cannot be one and the same. To me a teacher
is one who does not suffer from the two complexes; inferiority and arrogance.
Anger is no more his master. The stick/caning is the gun of the weak. Immorality
has no room in this profession .They can neither reform nor transform .Students
refuse to learn even from their scholarship. The words of teachers and more of their
good conduct inspire the students. I had great teachers. If I had a camera to
catch images of minds to record their face, physique and faculty, I could have
shown them to you today to envy .
The profession is challenging and very difficult. I have
seen post graduate teachers dictating their students on papers abuses against
their officers and colleagues to dispatch by post. I have seen principals black
mailing their teachers under them and inciting them against their colleagues. I
caught their anonymous letters got written by them to their bosses. The whole of
life such men centers on such actions. Within these one must learn to resolve
and perform .
I have seen animal dung
thrown on their doors by students in nights against teachers who terrorize
their students. I have seen and caught
professors to dictate question papers to their beloved students well before exam.
I have seen teachers hitting around the small kids belly by the cord of weaved electric
wires in the name of discipline. Dr Zakir Husain former President used to say that
the role of a teacher begins when everything fails and light is required. The
teachers do not live by bread alone.
I must have repented if I had not retired as one
among Teachers? Joining, working for decades and retiring from one of units (#AEES)
Mumbai of #Department of Atomic Energy Government of India will always
remembered by me. It was rewarding to be one of the highest corrupt free family
units in the same India which suffer from this evil.
It is due to the patronage and administrative
guardianship of DAE unit chiefs, the quality of life , crunch of necessary
requirements , finance and innovations in education were never felt. The
company of scientists, leaders of top ranking officers and interactions with
all them put us on high pedestals. Ours were day schools but imagine the
company our children with their children, their wives and the whole of colony
life , living and service facilities.
My working in different back grounds; government
offices, private industries, private schools ,sainik school ,university, the teachers
training colleges before and after retirement in south ,social fields ,
politics etc. forces me to reiterate
that DAE Schools have produced world class citizens ,leaders ,officers and so
on because these schools have an army of excellent teacher by and large to lay
the basic foundation in them .The forums of their reforms and transformations
are inbuilt of DAE Units all over. The credit goes to the Chairmen of Atomic
Energy commission since it came in to existence.
