Jawaharlal Nehru Jayanti is celebrated as which special day in India?

Jawaharlal Nehru Jayanti is celebrated as Children’s Day (Bal Diwas) in India. This connection exists because Pandit Nehru had immense love and respect for children, considering them the true strength and future of the nation. He believed that a country could achieve greatness only by ensuring that its children are educated, healthy, and happy. After his passing in 1964, the Indian government officially declared November 14 as Children’s Day to honor his memory and lifelong dedication to the welfare and education of children. On this day, schools organize fun and educational activities to celebrate childhood and encourage learning through play and creativity.
