The celebration of Children&amp;#039;s Day in India dates back to 1956. Prior to the death of Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru, India celebrated Children&amp;#039;s Day on 20 November (the date observed as [[Universal Children&amp;#039;s Day]] by the [[United Nations]]). After the death of Jawaharlal Nehru, his birth anniversary was chosen to be celebrated as Children&amp;#039;s Day in India. A resolution was passed in the parliament to give a befitting farewell to the first Prime Minister of India.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Why We Celebrate Children&amp;#039;s Day On 14 Nov When UN Observes It On 20 Nov Worldwide|url=http://www.badhaai.com/2017/09/why-we-celebrate-childrens-day-on-14.html|website=badhaai.com|access-date=14 September 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170914173200/http://www.badhaai.com/2017/09/why-we-celebrate-childrens-day-on-14.html|archive-date=14 September 2017|url-status=dead}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.ianslive.in/index.php?param=news/Leena_Jumani_celebrates_Childrens_Day-453764/ENTERTAINMENT/15|title=Children&amp;#039;s Day|author=Bollywood Country|work=IANS Live|access-date=15 November 2014}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.kvsrobangalore.org/gallery/index.php?level=album&amp;amp;id=4 |title=Children&amp;#039;s Day celebration photos |publisher=Kvsrobangalore.org |access-date=15 November 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141129022456/http://www.kvsrobangalore.org/gallery/index.php?level=album&amp;amp;id=4 |archive-date=29 November 2014 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/dehradun/Bal-diwas-a-day-to-celebrate-hair/articleshow/45151966.cms|title=Bal diwas – a day to celebrate hair?|work=The Times of India|access-date=15 November 2014}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
