Good morning respected director, principal, vice principal, hod’s, staff and students

thank you for having me. My name is hussain bin ali, and today iam going to speak about
engineers day. To begin, Engineers day is important because

A world without an engineer is just like a bike without wheels.

Today is the 158th birthday of one of the great sons of India.

September 15th is designated as Engineers Day. I would like to share with you some interesting
snippets from the life of the great man

India honors great servants of the country every year by awarding titles. The highest of this
award is ‘Bharata Ratna’.

In 1955 Visvesvaraya was awarded a ‘Bharata Ratna’, the Gem of India. He was a gem of
mankind.

Visvesvaraya was genius. The Block System which he invented, the automatic doors which he
devised to stop wasteful overflow of water, the water supply and drainage system which he
planned for the city of Aden – these won high praise from engineers all over the world.

He was a very great engineer in India and the first engineer too.

Even when he was 95, people who went to see him were surprised – he was so carefully and
neatly dressed.

He once said

“Remember, your work may be; to only sweep a railway crossing, but it is your duty to
keep it so clean, that no other crossing in the world is as clean as yours”

He once said,

“The curse of our country is laziness.

At first sight everyone seems to be working. But in fact, one man works and the others simply
watch him. As someone said with contempt, ‘it looks as if five men are working. But really only
one-man works. One man will be doing nothing. One man will be resting. Another man will be
watching them. Yet another man will be helping these three.” It all seems to be a lol situation.
Engineering Community in India is celebrating Engineers Day on every 15th September. Now
at 2019 number of Engineers rising in various Engineering branches is very high. Even
Engineers number in India grows, it’s sad to say that Engineers doesn’t have much knowledge
about this day.

The Engineering Community across India is celebrating Engineers Day every year. If we ask
the date of celebrations to Engineering students they may kill them by asking…Engineers Day,
what? We don’t hear etc.etc. We can’t find any fault in these engineering students behavior,
because most of the colleges never celebrate this occasion.

Engineers Day should be celebrated in all the Technical Institutions. Importance of the day is to
be made known to all budding Engineers by conducting more of exhibitions, seminars, Talks,
demos, and sharing experiences of practicing successful Technocrats etc.

Engineering is not merely to know and being knowledgeable, like a walking encyclopedia;
engineering is not merely analysis; engineering is not merely the possession of the capacity to
get elegant solutions to non-existent engineering problems;He is not a scientist, he is not a
mathematician, he is not a sociologist or a writer;

but he may use the knowledge and techniques of any; or all of these disciplines in solving
engineering problems. Engineers operate at the interface between science and society.

Engineers like to solve problems. If there are no problems handily available, they will
create their own problems and will develop a number of ways to solve them.

Now lakhs of Engineering graduates coming out every year from various parts of the country.
Colleges should celebrate this day with seminars about past to present scenario in Indian
Engineering. Engineers Day should be a day in which all zested minds in Engineering sector
should be treated with zealous by the authorities. Other-wise this day will disappear from the
history, as time passes.

With this hope let’s celebrate the day with all our efforts into this auspicious day.

Thank you
