Father’s day: A day to remember the legends


Father’s day is a very special day. We should not limit it by just wishing our parental father. The word father has a very deep meaning. We also call father a person who has contributed in some way to the society. There are many of them. I would be writing about some of the people who you would like to remember on this father’s day.

Ratan Tata: He is a businessmen and chairman of Tata Group. He is one of the powerful CEO in India. He has received many awards for his work which includes Padma Vibhushan. If we hear the names like Tata Indica and Tata Nano one name comes in our mind which is Ratan Tata.

Mahatama Gandhi: In India he is known as ‘Father of Nation’. He contributes most of his life in the Independence of India. Due to his contribution India got the independence in 1947. He used non-violence movement for Indian independence.  He studied law at University College London. Gandhi's birthday, 2 October, is a national holiday in India, Gandhi Jayanti. Gandhi's image also appears on paper currency of all denominations issued by Reserve Bank of India, except for the one rupee note.

Charles Babbage: He is known as Father of computer. Today computers are backbone of every aspect of life. He was an English mathematician, philosopher, inventor and mechanical engineer who originated the concept of a programmable computer. Babbage is credited with inventing the first mechanical computer that eventually led to more complex designs.

Vint Cerf:  He is an American computer scientist, who is recognized as one of[4] "the fathers of the Internet". He developed of the first commercial email system (MCI Mail) connected to the Internet. He received many honours and awards for his legendary work.

Father’s day is a memorable day in the history of the world. On this day we remember many legends around the world who have contributed in some way to the society. We should add more value to this day. We can make it more special. We can remember some of the legends and their great work towards the society. We should thank the person who initiated Father’s day.

One more thing we can do. We can send an e-card to somebody whom we know. The person who is doing something for the society. Just type www.desievite on the address bar and send him/her a desievite e-card.
