Correct Answer :   November 14


November 14th is a significant day in India, marking the birth anniversary of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the country's first Prime Minister.

Children's Day, or Bal Diwas, is celebrated on this day to honour Nehru's vision of nurturing India's youth.

This date was chosen to commemorate Nehru's love and admiration for children, who he believed held the key to the nation's progress.

In contrast, Universal Children's Day is observed globally on November 20.

Schools and communities across India organize special events on November 14 to promote children's happiness, development, and rights.
