Here’s to the much entrancing Dr. Sandeep Singh, 39 of Punjab holding four master’s degrees and a PhD who sells vegetables to subsist. Singh served as a contractual professor of Law at Punjab University in Patiala for 11 years but unfortunate circumstances led him to drop his job.
Singh holds a PhD in law, and four Master’s degrees in subjects including Punjabi, journalism, and political science and is still pursuing studies. He left his job after facing hurdles such as salary cut and irregular pay. Speaking of which, Singh in a press statement said,
“I had to leave the job because I didn’t use to get my salary on time and there was frequent pay cut. It had become difficult for me to make ends meet with that job. That’s why I switched to selling vegetables for the survival of me and my family.” said Dr. Sandeep Singh
With his vegetable cart and a board saying ‘PhD Sabzi Wala’, Dr. Sandeep Singh goes home to home every day to sell vegetables. He claims that he earns more money by selling vegetables than he did as a professor. After a full day of work, he goes back home and studies for his exam.
Even though he has taken a break from teaching, Dr. Sandeep Singh has not given up his passion. He aspires to save money and open his own tuition center one day.
