About Smt.Rajni Bala by her ouw words :-
Born and bought up in a middle-class family in Dinanagar. My father was an SST. teacher at govt. senior secondary school and my mother was a Hindi mistress at an aided school. I have completed my high school studies with 75% (1st division). Due to adverse terrorist activities taking place in Punjab at that time nobody was ready to send their girls to cities that were around 7km distance. I was very keen to study science as a subject. So, As my parents were well educated they helped me to get admission in govt. school Gurdaspur where I completed my higher secondary with 75%. I always wanted to serve as a teacher to contribute to society. I was the only girl at that time in my village who took science as a major subject. As my parents helped me to keep my dream of exploring the world of science they made me enroll in B.Sc at one of the best colleges of that time Govt. college Gurdaspur. Where I met NYK in charge of mister Elvin Masih he was much impressed by my interest and eagerness to participate in all sorts of activities. He in order to shape up my personality helped me to participate in the All India National Camp, held at Gandhian Rural institute, Gandhi gram (Tamil Nadu). Along with that I also participated in many camps such as the youth leadership camp.
