पूरण लाल चौधरी उत्तर प्रदेश के बहराइच के प्राथमिक विद्यालय, बरुआ बेहड़ में अध्यापक हैं। टीचर्स डायरी में आज उनका अनुभव उन सभी शिक्षकों के लिए मिसाल है, जिनका मकसद बच्चों को हर हालात में स्कूल से जोड़ना है।

In 2015, when Puran Lal Chaudhary was posted as a teacher at Barua Behad village in Bahraich district, Uttar Pradesh, barely 12 students came to the school. No teacher wanted to stay in the village that had no electricity and was pretty backward in basic amenities. Chaudhary stayed on and transformed the school. The educator who won the state teachers’ award shares his journey.
