Every year, November 14, is celebrated as Children's Day to commemorate the birth anniversary of independent India's first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.
Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was very fond of children, whenever he got free time, he used to spend his time with them.
Children also fondly called him 'Chacha Nehru', so from the year 1964, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru's birthday was celebrated as Children's Day.
Initially, it was celebrated on November 20 in accordance with the Universal Children’s Day declared by the United Nations but after the demise of Jawaharlal Nehru in 1964, a resolution was passed in the Indian Parliament and November 14 was marked as Children’s Day to honour his legacy.
Whereas World Children's Day was first established in 1954 as Universal Children's Day and is celebrated on 20 November each year to promote international togetherness, awareness among children worldwide, and improving children's welfare.
