Let’s Create A Safe & Supportive Environment For Children’s Growth: CM Yogi

On Thursday, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath extended his heartfelt greetings on Children’s Day and emphasized the importance of fostering a secure and nurturing environment for children’s development.

Taking to X, CM Yogi posted, “Heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to all the dear children and residents of the state on ‘Children’s Day’!”

“Children are the future of the nation and the foundation of a ‘developed and self-reliant’ India,” he added.

CM Yogi further stated, “Let us create a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment to empower children and give wings to their dreams. This is also a social and national duty.”

Children’s Day, observed every year on 14 November, coincides with the birth anniversary of India’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, deeply committed to children’s welfare.

Pandit Nehru, born in 1889 in Allahabad (now Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh), is fondly remembered as ‘Chacha Nehru’ for his affection towards children and his dedication to their education and well-being.

This year marks the 135th birth anniversary of Pandit Nehru, whose vision laid the foundation for children’s rights and education in the country.

Following his death in 1964, the government dedicated 14 November as Children’s Day to honor Jawaharlal Nehru’s enduring legacy.

The inaugural celebration took place in 1965, launching an annual tradition aimed at advocating for children’s rights and highlighting their role in shaping India’s future.

This day has since become a vital symbol of the nation’s dedication to its youth.

Across India, schools and organizations host cultural programs, competitions, and awareness campaigns focused on children’s welfare, education, and rights.
