How important days and dates worksमहत्वपूर्ण दिवस और तिथियाँ को समझिए

Many national days honour a person: National Youth Day on 12 January marks Swami Vivekananda’s birth anniversary, Teachers’ Day on 5 September Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan’s, and National Mathematics Day on 22 December Srinivasa Ramanujan’s.

The three armed forces each have a day: Army Day (15 January), Air Force Day (8 October) and Navy Day (4 December).

International days are set by the United Nations, such as World Environment Day (5 June) and the International Day of Yoga (21 June), which India proposed.
