Why we celebrate Teacher’s Day on 5th September.

Regardless of the color, country or caste, teachers bestow equal knowledge to their students. They play a special role in everyone’s life. Hence, to show our gratitude towards them, we celebrate Teacher’s day, every year.
In India, the Teacher’s Day is celebrated on 5th September. On this day, students appreciate the contribution of teachers to the society by hosting a small function.
Now, you must be curious to know, why 5th September?
