National Mathematics Day
 National Mathematics Day is commemorated on 22 December since 2012. The then Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh paid tribute to the 125th birth anniversary of Ramanujan as happy National Mathematics Day. The day is intended to be regarding the significant legacy of Ramanujan’s contribution to the field of Maths.The most important reason to celebrate National Mathematics Day is to raise awareness about the importance of mathematics in people and the integral part it plays in the development of humanity. Training for these is provided to teachers and students through camps. The main objective is to highlight the development, assembly, implementation of teaching and learning materials for mathematics and other related areas in research.
