Currently posted as Additional Director of Local Bodies, Urban Department in UP, Ms. Suhas’s journey is as unconventional as it is inspiring.

Her striking features and impeccable sense of style have earned her recognition on runways and in photo shoots. She remains unapologetically herself, embracing her dual identity with grace and confidence.

In a world that often compartmentalizes individuals based on their professions, Ms. Ritu Suhas stands as a shining example of versatility and resilience. Whether she is donning the attire of a bureaucrat or sashaying down the catwalk, she epitomizes the notion that true success lies in staying true to oneself, no matter where the journey may lead.
