Babuji, as he was fondly called, the 5th of April is celebrated in remembrance of one of the greatest sons of India, Dr. Babu Jagjeevan Ram. He was a union minister and served our nation in different portfolios for over 3 decades! As the minister for agriculture, he contributed for the Green Revolution and the modernization of our agricultural system.
Thinking of Dr. Jagjeevan Ram, it is with a wonderful nostalgia that our school's 25th anniversary was celebrated at Dr. Jagjeevan Ram Bhavan a few months ago.
He also served as the Deputy Prime minister of India from January 1979 to July 1979. Let us pay our respects to a crusader of social justice, a freedom fighter, a champion of depressed classes and an outstanding politician. JAI HIND.
