This day is celebrated to acknowledge and honour Maulana Azad's contribution to the country's education system. The theme for National Education Day 2022 is “Changing Course, Transforming Education.” Maulana Azad was a great freedom fighter and educationist who was committed to reforming and reshaping India's education system. He played an important role in improving the Indian education structure. He also strongly advocated for women's education. The credit for implementing the modern education system also goes to him. Under the leadership of Azad, the Ministry of Education (MoE) established the country's first IIT in 1951. Following this the University Grants Commission (UGC) was formed in 1953. He believed that these institutions will prove to be important in the higher education sector in future. All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the Higher education system were also established during his tenure. His contribution in the establishment of the famous Jamia Millia Islamia University in the country is also commendable.

आजादी का अमृत महोत्सव

                                                        


                                          अमृत महोत्सव आजादी का

भरे हृदय में ऊर्जा अभिनव,
अवसर जो पाए विकास के
करे उन्हें हर जन ही अनुभव।

आजादी सबको है भाती
नहीं चाहता कोई बन्धन,
अपनी इच्छा से हर प्राणी
करना चाहे जीवन – यापन।

हमने भी जब अंग्रेजों से
पाई थी मिलकर आजादी,
खुली हवा में साँस ले सकी
तब जा भारत की आबादी।

आजादी की कीमत भारी
हमको भी तो पड़ी चुकानी,
वीर शहीदों ने हँस – हँसकर
दे दी थी अपनी कुर्बानी।

फाँसी पर जो चढ़े देशहित
आओ ! उनको याद करें हम,
आजादी की रक्षा में भी
दिखलाएँ हम पूरा दमखम।

गर्व करें सब भारतवासी
अब हम अपने भाग्य – विधाता,
जोड़ा है सब भेद भुलाकर
लोकतंत्र से अपना नाता।

जो वैधानिक प्रावधान हैं
रखें बनाए उनकी गरिमा,
सबको गौरव देने वाले
संविधान की गाएँ महिमा।

अमृत महोत्सव मना सभी हम
मन को अपने करें तिरंगा,
उत्तर से लेकर दक्षिण तक
देशप्रेम की लहरे गंगा।
