}}Atishi (full name: Atishi Marlena Singh)[3][4] is an Indian Politician, Educator, and Political Activist.[5] She is a member of the Political Affairs Committee of Aam Aadmi Party and has played a major role in transforming the government schools of New Delhi.[2][5] She served as the Advisor to the Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi, Manish Sisodia, primarily on education, from July 2015 to 17 April 2018, when she was sacked by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs. Her removal sparked a backlash on social media against the Center,[6] after Delhi's Education Minister Manish Sisodia credited her with being the architect of Delhi's education reforms.[7]

Early life and education

Atishi Singh was born to Delhi University professors Vijay Kumar Singh and Tripta Wahi on 8 June 1981.[8] She was given the middle name 'Marlena' by her parents after Marx and Lenin. As she grew up, she chose to use "Atishi Marlena" as her name, dropping her surname from daily use as she wanted people to focus on her work rather than her lineage.[4][9] After being raised in Delhi, and finishing high school from Springdales School New Delhi, Atishi graduated in history at St. Stephen's College, Delhi in 2001. She was the Delhi University topper for that year. Soon after, she went to the Oxford University and in 2003 she completed her Master's degree in History on a Chevning scholarship.[10] In 2005 she went to Magdalen College, Oxford as a Rhodes scholar.[11][12]

Professional career

Atishi spent some time teaching History and English at Rishi Valley School in Andhra Pradesh and in 2006 she moved to a small village near Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh. There she was involved with such things as Organic farming and progressive education systems, and she worked with several non-profit organisations, such as the Sambhavana Institute of Public Policy. While there she met casually with various members of the AAP, including Prashant Bhushan.[11][13]

Political career

Although always interested in public policy, Atishi observed the 2011 Indian Anti-corruption movement as a sceptical outsider, believing that single-issue campaigns were ineffective. In January 2013, she became involved in policy formulation for the AAP, which has its roots in that movement.[11] Atishi serves as a member of the party's apex executive body, the Political Affairs Committee. Recently, she was also appointed as the Lok Sabha in-charge for the East Delhi constituency. She was appointed a Spokesperson of the party in 2013 and has been representing the party on television debates ever since.

She was closely involved with the Jal Satyagraha in Khandwa district of Madhya Pradesh 2015 and provided vital support to the AAP leader & activist spearheading the campaign Alok Agarwal during the historic protests, as well as during the legal battle that ensued.[14]

She has been appointed as the Lok Sabha in-charge for East Delhi for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.[15]

2019 Lok Sabha Election

Atishi will be contesting from the East Delhi parliamentary constituency as an AAP party candidate for the 2019 Lok Sabha Elections.

Governance

As Advisor to the Education Minister of Delhi Shri Manish Sisodia, she played a key role in leading the Education reforms in Delhi. She famously worked for the Delhi government for an honorarium of One Rupee per Month, before she was removed in April, 2018. Her Work led to the revival of School Management Committee in Delhi.

Atishi was also spearheading the flagship Mohalla Sabha Project for the Government of NCT of Delhi. The effort to decentralise governance to empower every citizen was a major promise of the AAP before coming to power. Atishi refers to it as 'localising', rather than ‘peoplising’, the whole process because not all decisions need to be taken at the top level. There are some decisions that need to be made locally. However enlightened the government might be, they would not have an estimate of what every individual’s need is. We are the government which is taking inputs from the people."[16] The project was rejected by the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi in 2016.
