'Happy Teachers' Day,' says Google doodle

“A true teacher is one who, keeping the past alive, is also able to understand the present” –Confucius

The role of a teacher in an individual’s life goes beyond mere textbooks and test scores. They are the mentors, friends, and catalysts who push us to ask questions, to seek answers, to shape our mind the way it rightly should be to become better individuals.

In honour of the all the noblest and most selfless mentors Google has published an animated doodle on its India homepage.
