Every year, on 5th September, India celebrates Teachers’ Day with gratitude and pride. This day marks the birth anniversary of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, a philosopher, visionary, and the second President of India. Known for his belief that “Education is the means to bring out the best in man,” Dr. Radhakrishnan dedicated his life to nurturing values of wisdom and learning.
In 2025, his legacy lives on through the Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan Memorial Awards, an initiative by Ink and Ideas Publication House. These awards recognize individuals who, through education, writing, leadership, or social service, carry forward the noble mission of shaping minds and communities.
Why the Awards Matter
Awards often shine a spotlight on success stories, but the Memorial Awards go deeper. They celebrate:
-
Educators who inspire curiosity and values.
-
Writers and creators who use words to influence change.
-
Leaders who guide with empathy.
-
Social changemakers who uplift communities.
Each awardee is chosen not only for professional accomplishments but also for the impact they create in lives around them.
