Saturday, the September 5 of the year 2015 was an amazing day when the Teacher’s Day fell on the birthday of lord Krishna who is the biggest and most appropriate teacher to the mankind. Krishna taught the very concept of Karma through which anything or any aim can be achieved. And smartly enough, Krishna also liberated the human from tensions of outcome. Krishna clearly mentioned that you go ahead and make best of the choices you have. Then proceed with the action ensuring you do not stray from the path of truth. And when you are done, just chill and relax. Leave the rest on me. A teacher too gives same lesson to their pupils in most practical way. You attend classes, learn concepts, take exams, and then leave the results in the hands of a Teacher. Although results given by the teacher are most prominent and authoritative but that also again depend on actions taken by the student. So every- thing is interconnected. You are in a situa- tion portrayed by the time you are living in. You select one path out of sev- eral available. Then you act upon inspired by best of your wisdom. And here your part ends. Rest depends upon the action you took. What you are expect- ing is your understanding but what results would be is the wisdom of the lord. The results are always best in situation and allows you to enjoy the fruit of your deed and gives you an opportunity to ponder over your actions that brought that result. I strongly believe that these are the eternal principles that we should keep in mind. but due to the nature of our memory, we tend to forget that we owe results of our actions. We forget easily that what we are today doing is noth- ing but a base of our future conditions. Perhaps this is why Teacher’s Day falls every 365 days so that if we missed out on ethical things last year, better we wake up, gear up, and get along with the right path. If you are cheating on someone for example, you are setting a cheat board for yourself. The difference between today and future would be only this that the future version would have more gravity than today. If you are helping someone today, you are laying a plot of future where you will be helped in much more ways. So, this Teacher’s Day, lets note down one thing clearly that you are respon- sible for your conditions that are today. And you have no control over it. But if you are still not doing right things today, you will be responsible for a bleak future. So this Teacher’s Day, lets pledge that we will do best possible in best way in best of spirit so that we today make the life easy for others and then then Krishna will make life much easier in your future.

Jaipur : Extending an olive branch to agitating teachers in the state, primary education minister Vasudev Devnani on Saturday par- tially agreed to their demands and urged them to end the ongoing agitation. Devnani announced the com- pulsory six- and- a- half hour school time would be reduced by 20 minutes. He also conceded to fill all vacant posts immediately and conduct a yearly review of the ongoing staffing pattern. “On the occasion of teacher’s day, we have agreed to meet the demands of the agitating teach- ers. Most importantly, the new school timings would be now of 6 hours and 10 minutes, which is similar to the timings of CBSE schools and Kendriya Vidyalayas. The school timing will remain same for both summer and win- ter,” the education minister said. Around 32 teachers’ associa- tions across the state had been agitating against the increase in school time, staffing pattern and no appointment on vacant posts. Addressing a press confer- ence, Devnani appealed to the teachers’ union to refrain from indulging in “trade unionism” and urged them to cooperate with the education department. “Rajasthan cannot progress without the combined effort of teachers and (the) state machin- ery. It is my humble request to them (teachers’ unions) to not to incul- cate the trend of trade unionism in education,” he said. The min- ister also promised assured career promotion (ACP), promotion of teachers through district promo- tion committee (DPC) and imple- mentation of transfer policy. “We have plans to fill 89,000 vacant posts across the state in the near future that includes 30,000 posts through REET for third division teachers and 13,000 lecturers for colleges. Also, one lakh teachers will get ACP and many teachers will get promotion through DPC. Also, (the) transfer policy will be reviewed and most probably be implemented from the next session,” said Devnani. Hitting out at the previous Congress-led governments at the state and Centre, the minister said the BJP government wishes to “undo the damage done in the field of education by the earlier gov- ernment.” “Admission figures had hit a new low in Rajasthan in the ses- sion 2010-11. This year, we have managed to admit more than 8 lakh students thereby repairing the damage (the) Gehlot government had done to the education ( sys- tem). Also, Kapil Sibal’s decision to not to fail students till 8th stan- dard has seriously affected the quality of education and therefore we wish to review and recall that decision,” said Devnani. The All Rajasthan School Teachers’ Association, however, dubbed the assurances made by the minister as “bluff”. “Reducing 20 minutes of school time is not what we are agitating against. These promises had been made by the minister in the past as well, but none of them were imple- mented. We will continue to protest until our demands are met…(the) minister is free to call us names,” said ARSTA president Ram Krishna Agarwal. Earlier, at a state- level func- tion at Birla auditorium, governor Kalyan Singh and Devnani felic- itated 43 teachers from across the state for their inspiring works and dedication towards teaching. “Education is the pillar of any soci- ety as it is responsible for the future.

Saturday, the September 5 of the year 2015 was an amazing day when the

Teacher’s Day fell on the birthday of lord Krishna who is the biggest and

most appropriate teacher to the mankind. Krishna taught the very concept

of Karma through which anything or any aim can be achieved. And smartly

enough, Krishna also liberated the human from tensions of outcome. Krishna

clearly mentioned that you go ahead and make best of the choices you have.

Then proceed with the action ensuring you do not stray from the path of

truth. And when you are done, just chill and relax. Leave the rest on me.

A teacher too gives same lesson to their pupils in most practical way. You

attend classes, learn concepts, take exams, and then leave the results in

the hands of a Teacher. Although results

given by the teacher are most prominent

and authoritative but that also again depend

on actions taken by the student. So every-

thing is interconnected. You are in a situa-

tion portrayed by the time you are living in. You select one path out of sev-

eral available. Then you act upon inspired by best of your wisdom. And here

your part ends. Rest depends upon the action you took. What you are expect-

ing is your understanding but what results would be is the wisdom of the

lord. The results are always best in situation and allows you to enjoy the fruit

of your deed and gives you an opportunity to ponder over your actions that

brought that result.

I strongly believe that these are the eternal principles that we should keep

in mind. but due to the nature of our memory, we tend to forget that we owe

results of our actions. We forget easily that what we are today doing is noth-

ing but a base of our future conditions.

Perhaps this is why Teacher’s Day falls every 365 days so that if we missed

out on ethical things last year, better we wake up, gear up, and get along

with the right path.

If you are cheating on someone for example, you are setting a cheat board

for yourself. The difference between today and future would be only this that

the future version would have more gravity than today. If you are helping

someone today, you are laying a plot of future where you will be helped in

much more ways.

So, this Teacher’s Day, lets note down one thing clearly that you are respon-

sible for your conditions that are today. And you have no control over it. But

if you are still not doing right things today, you will be responsible for a bleak

future. So this Teacher’s Day, lets pledge that we will do best possible in

best way in best of spirit so that we today make the life easy for others and

then then Krishna will make life much easier in your future.

Jaipur :Extending an olive branch

to agitating teachers in the state,

primary education minister

Vasudev Devnani on Saturday par-

tially agreed to their demands and

urged them to end the ongoing

agitation.

Devnani announced the com-

pulsory six- and- a- half hour

school time would be reduced by

20 minutes.

He also conceded to fill all

vacant posts immediately and

conduct a yearly review of the

ongoing staffing pattern.

“On the occasion of teacher’s

day, we have agreed to meet the

demands of the agitating teach-

ers. Most importantly, the new

school timings would be now of

6 hours and 10 minutes, which is

similar to the timings of CBSE

schools and Kendriya Vidyalayas.

The school timing will remain

same for both summer and win-

ter,” the education minister said.

Around 32 teachers’ associa-

tions across the state had been

agitating against the increase in

school time, staffing pattern and

no appointment on vacant posts.

Addressing a press confer-

ence, Devnani appealed to the

teachers’ union to refrain from

indulging in “trade unionism” and

urged them to cooperate with the

education department.

“Rajasthan cannot progress

without the combined effort of

teachers and (the) state machin-

ery. It is my humble request to them

(teachers’ unions) to not to incul-

cate the trend of trade unionism

in education,” he said. The min-

ister also promised assured career

promotion (ACP), promotion of

teachers through district promo-

tion committee (DPC) and imple-

mentation of transfer policy.

“We have plans to fill 89,000

vacant posts across the state in

the near future that includes

30,000 posts through REET for

third division teachers and 13,000

lecturers for colleges. Also, one

lakh teachers will get ACP and

many teachers will get promotion

through DPC. Also, (the) transfer

policy will be reviewed and most

probably be implemented from the

next session,” said Devnani.

Hitting out at the previous

Congress-led governments at the

state and Centre, the minister said

the BJP government wishes to

“undo the damage done in the field

of education by the earlier gov-

ernment.”

“Admission figures had hit a

new low in Rajasthan in the ses-

sion 2010-11. This year, we have

managed to admit more than 8

lakh students thereby repairing the

damage (the) Gehlot government

had done to the education ( sys-

tem). Also, Kapil Sibal’s decision

to not to fail students till 8th stan-

dard has seriously affected the

quality of education and therefore

we wish to review and recall that

decision,” said Devnani.

The All Rajasthan School

Teachers’ Association, however,

dubbed the assurances made by

the minister as “bluff”. “Reducing

20 minutes of school time is not

what we are agitating against.

These promises had been made

by the minister in the past as well,

but none of them were imple-

mented. We will continue to protest

until our demands are met…(the)

minister is free to call us names,”

said ARSTA president Ram

Krishna Agarwal.

Earlier, at a state- level func-

tion at Birla auditorium, governor

Kalyan Singh and Devnani felic-

itated 43 teachers from across the

state for their inspiring works and

dedication towards teaching.

“Education is the pillar of any soci-

ety as it is responsible for the

future. Teachers should mould stu-

dents in a way that they are ben-

eficial to the country. I salute the

dedicated teachers of Rajasthan

for their sincerity and hard work,”

said Singh.

Minister agrees to cut school time,fill all vacant posts but not OK

Anamika was born with a

silver spoon in her mouth is the

term normally used for girls born

in affluent family but for a lady

like Anamika ,it has to put this

way that a silver spoon turned

into diamond plated in plat-

inum as she grew up. The fam-

ily was not just wealthy finan-

cially but taught her the true val-

ues of humanity, relationships

and the power of love. As a child

she was the favourite of the three

generation living together, her

grandparents, her parents and

uncles and aunts and her broth-

ers. Such was her intellect that

during her adolescent years she

was called the “grandmother”

of her home. Her family was

God loving and religious due

to which she learnt to read

“Ramayana” from her grand-

mother at an early age of 6.
