We celebrated Maharashtra Day to commemorate the formation of the state of Maharashtra after its division from Bombay State on May 1, 1960. The state of Maharashtra was made on the basis of languages after defining boundaries under The State Reorganization Act 1956.  The original state was divided into Maharashtra and Gujarat on the basis of people who spoke Marathi, Konkani, Gujarati and Kutchi. The Sanyukta Maharashtra Samiti led the movement at the forefront and divided Bombay State into two states. The Bombay Reorganization Act of 1960 which resulted in the two separate states of Maharashtra and Gujarat was enacted by the Parliament of Indian on April 25, 1960.The program was attended by our School Management, Principal, Teachers and Non-Teaching Staff. The day also coincides with International Worker’s Day or Labour Day which is being observed since the 19^th century. The National Flag was hoisted & followed by National Anthem.
