Kisan Diwas


 

Kisan Diwas, or National Farmer's Day, is observed annually on December 23 to honour the birth anniversary of Chaudhary Charan Singh, India's fifth Prime Minister and a dedicated advocate for farmers. This day is celebrated to express gratitude to the farmers who form the foundation of the country's economy.

Date of Kisan Diwas

In 2001, the Government of India designated December 23 as Kisan Diwas to commemorate Chaudhary Charan Singh's contributions toward the upliftment of farmers. The day highlights his vision for farmer welfare and serves as a reminder of the pivotal role farmers play in the nation's growth.
