Mayank Foundation to felicitate 25 teachers on the Teachers’ Day

Ferozepur, September 4, 2020:  Ferozepur- based leading social welfare organisation Mayank Foundation has decided to felicitate 25 teachers for making path- breaking efforts for education during lockdown on the occasion of the World Teachers’ Day. Considering the national mourning after the death of former President of India Pranav Mukherjee, the foundation has decided to confer the certificates of honour to the teachers through digital mode.

Speaking on the occasion, Rakesh Kumar, Secretary of the foundation, informed that a small ceremony as per the corona protocols will be held later to felicitate these teachers who have been selected to take the honours for their exemplary role during the pandemic times.  However, in observance to the national mourning as a mark of respect for the late former President,

we have decided to award them digitally only on September 5, the Teachers’ Day.

Gazalpreet Singh, a founding member of the organisation revealed that the criterion for the award was set keeping in mind the works done by the teachers on various fronts to ensure quality education even during the times of corona.

The prominent names among the teachers who are to be honoured include Social Science teacher Jasvir Singh, primary teacher Charanjit Singh and Hindi mistress Jyoti, who have already created a niche for themselves in the field of education.
