22nd
December is celebrated as National Mathematics day across the country from 2012
to honor Indian mathematical genius Srinivasa Ramanujan (22-Dec-1887 to
26-Dec-1920). Ramanujan showed the signs
of an unfolding genius and his contributions regarding fractions, infinite
series, number theory, mathematical analysis, etc and set an example in
mathematics. The main objective behind the celebration is to raise awareness
among people about the importance of mathematics for the development of
humanity.
Government Polytechnic Jamnagar also
