Commemorating a relation b/w Student & teacher in today's #TeachersDay..
In this picture Dr. Abdus Salam, renowned Pakistani Nobel Laureate came to meet his Bengali professor Anilendra Ganguly, who had taught him mathematics in the pre-partition era at the S.D College,Lahore.
Dr.Salam had credited Ganguly for instilling the interest towards mathematics in him, which, he believed, led him to become a scientist.“The teacher was feeble and unable to sit up and greet him when Dr Salam visited him at his residence in Kolkata on 19th January,1981.
Dr Salam took his medal &said that ‘Sir,this medal is a result of your teaching & love of mathematics that you instilled in me,’ & he put the medal around his teachers’ neck,” writes Zia H Shah MD, a New York-based physician and Chief Editor of the Muslim Times, in this article.
