New Delhi: India is very proud of its daughters as they have made it proud on the local as well as international stage. Whatever the domain, from science to education, and arts to sports, they have proved their mettle. Many of them were not privileged to have things served on a platter, hence they fought at every single step and made space for themselves. Ultimately, they emerged victorious.
The woman we are going to talk about today is one such strong woman of substance, who proved her grit against all odds. She is a famous English teacher, Neetu Singh, popularly known as Neetu Ma'am. Who is Neetu Singh, aka Neetu Ma'am?
Neetu Singh, popularly known as Neetu Ma'am, is a famous English teacher who has drawn a lot of attention due to her professional as well as personal life. She faced a lot of problems in her life due to the circumstances. After the death of her father, people close to her family pressured her mother to send her to a girls' school. However, her mother ensured the best education for her and got her admitted to Delhi University for higher education.
Neetu Ma'am is a symbol of resilience, strength, and mental toughness. She is incredibly successful today, but her journey has had its share of struggles, betrayals, and accomplishments. What was Neetu Ma'am's childhood like?
Neetu Ma'am was born in Giridih, Jharkhand. She was only three when her father, Kishore Dev, died in a road accident. She was raised by her mother and elder brother, and they were facing hardship in the form of poverty. She grew up with six sisters. The difficulties of life taught her important lessons which she would not have learned in any school. Earning an LLB from Delhi University
But she did not give up and completed her schooling at Carmel Convent (Giridih) and St. John's School (Varanasi), followed by a degree from Vinoba Bhave University. Neetu was clear about which path she had to take, and for that, she moved to Delhi and earned an LLB from Campus Law Centre, Delhi University. Marriage, betrayal, and ultimate triumph
In 2005, Neetu laid the foundation of her first coaching. In 2006, she married Rajiv Soumitra. Together, they started Paramount Coaching Centre, which went on to become a Rs. 200-crore enterprise. She also authored English Volume 1, a bestselling book for competitive exams.
But then came a brutal turn. In August 2015, her husband allegedly sent goons to assault her and forcibly oust her from Paramount Coaching Centre of which she was a co-founder and 50% shareholder.
Even this incident did not deter her, and she continued on her way forward.
