My dear Educators of Andaman and Nicobar Islands,

On the special occasion of Teacher's Day, I wish to extend my heartfelt gratitude and admiration to all of you who have dedicated your lives to shaping the minds and futures of our young Islanders. Your role is pivotal in weaving the fabric of our society and preserving the unique cultural heritage of these Islands.

Our Islands, though distant from the mainland, have never lagged behind in the quest for knowledge and enlightenment, and it is solely because of the tireless efforts and commitment of teachers like you. Each day, you not only teach academic subjects but also instill values, culture, and love for our pristine environment.
