Sunaina Singh Rajput is a government school teacher in Rajasthan. After finishing her studies, she prepared for government exams and qualified for them in 2012. Before coming to Rajasthan, Sunaina used to teach as a para teacher under the Madhya Pradesh government from 1997 to 2011.
Sunaina got married in the second year of her college. Nevertheless, she continued with her studies and completed her graduation. She enrolled herself in the Senior Teacher Certificate programme alongside carrying out her duties as a para teacher. Sunaina used to go to the village to teach primary-class students. She is also a B.Ed. from Keshav Vidhyapeeth, Jaipur. Later, she prepared for RPSC and got into a government teaching job.
Sunaina says that in a world where girls are often not allowed to work or study after marriage, she is grateful to have an educated and broad-minded family who let her focus on her career. However, the road she had chosen for herself was challenging wherein she had to commute daily for long distances. It was only because of her dedication and patience that she was able to complete her teachers training successfully.
When asked about her role models, Sunaina says that she considers her teacher, Sumitra Patidar, as her inspiration, because of whom she is in a government job today. She says that one should keep studying and learning along the way.
If Sunaina could go back in a Time Machine, she would revisit her childhood, which was quite pleasant and beautiful.
In her free time, Sunaina spends time with her kids and cooks delicious food for them. She also teaches them moral values and plays games with them.
