#*Leapday*
#*Former Prime Miniter Morarji Desai brithday* (29 February 1896)
————————————
Today, February 29, 2024, we are celebrating Leap Day, which is a rare and special occasion that occurs only once every four years. During this day, an extra day is added to the year, making it 366 days long instead of the usual 365. This phenomenon usually occurs in most years that are evenly divisible by four, such as 2020, 2024, 2028, and so on.
Leap Day came about as a result of the Julian calendar, which was used way back in 46 BCE. The Julian calendar did not account for the fact that it takes the Earth a bit more than 365 days to complete its journey around the Sun. By adding an extra day, we help make up for this extra time, which helps to keep our calendar in sync with the Earth's orbit. Without Leap Day, our seasons would slowly start shifting, getting earlier and earlier each year, which could mess things up.
Morarji Ranchhodji Desai brith day leap day (29 February 1896 – 10 April 1995) was an Indian independence activist and politician who served as the 4th Prime Minister of India between 1977 and 1979 leading the government formed by the Janata Party. During his long career in politics, he held many important posts in government such as Chief Minister of Bombay State, Home Minister, Finance Minister and 2nd Deputy Prime Minister of India.
