Global Day of Parents Celebrated at AAFT University |
New Delhi: “Today
is a very special day for me because I get to celebrate the people I love more
than my life and they’re my beloved parents! Mom and dad, thank you for
the greatest gift of all, the gift of unconditional love. Happy Parents’ Day!,”
said Dr. Sandeep Marwah Chancellor of AAFT University of Media And Arts while
talking to the students on Global Day of Parents.
Global
Day of Parents is an annual event that is celebrated on June 1 to honour all
the parents around the world for being the anchor of their families and
selflessly nurturing and protecting their children.
The
day was declared as the Global Day of Parents by the
UN General Assembly in 2012. This was done to appreciate all parents for their
lifelong sacrifice towards raising their children. Parents
play a key role in the health, emotional well-being, and education of a child.
“On
the Global Day of Parents, you must thank your parents for shaping your life
and protecting you from all kinds of sufferings and difficulties. Now that you
have grown up, make sure your parents do not feel lonely as they always stood by
your side in every thick and thin,” emphasized Dr. Marwah while answering
few questions.
