Early life and backgroundSunita Kejriwal was born on 11 February 1966 in New Delhi. She completed a master’s degree in zoology and later graduated from the National Academy of Direct Taxes in Nagpur as part of her training for the Indian Revenue Service. Her hometown and longtime residence have been in New Delhi.
Career
Sunita joined the Indian Revenue Service in the 1993 batch. Over more than two decades in the service she rose to the rank of Commissioner of Income Tax, with her last posting at the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal in New Delhi. After 22 years of government service she opted for voluntary retirement in July 2016.
During her career Sunita trained at the National Academy of Direct Taxes in Nagpur and also attended a foundation course at the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration in Mussoorie. Her professional life was rooted in tax administration and she served in the IRS until taking VRS.
Personal life and family
Sunita married Arvind Kejriwal in November 1994. The couple met during their training period and married before completing their course. They have two children: a daughter, Harshita Kejriwal, who has worked as an associate consultant at the Boston Consulting Group, and a son, Pulkit Kejriwal, who is described as a student.
Sunita has been described as a vegetarian who enjoys travelling, listening to music and practicing yoga. Her physical profile in public records lists her height at approximately 5 feet 3 inches and black hair and eyes.
Public profile
Sunita has largely maintained a low public profile, though she became publicly visible when Arvind Kejriwal first became Chief Minister of Delhi in 2013. She has participated in public activities alongside her family, including door-to-door campaigning during the 2020 Delhi Assembly elections and accompanying her husband on morning walks in Delhi.
Her decision to take voluntary retirement in 2016 followed a period of political tension between the Delhi government and the central government; reporting at the time described concerns about possible victimisation as a factor in her choice to leave the service.
Controversies
Sunita has been named in a legal matter concerning voter identity documents. A complaint filed in April 2019 alleged she held two voter ID cards. She was summoned by a Delhi court in September 2023, and the Delhi High Court stayed the summon orders in November 2023. These developments relate to the ongoing legal process and court actions reported in the public record.
Recent public activity
In March 2024, after Arvind Kejriwal was taken into custody in a case related to the Delhi liquor matter, Sunita read a message he had sent from jail, relaying his words to the public. She continues to appear with family members at public and political events.
Latest updates
As of the most recent reporting in 2024, Sunita remains a retired IRS officer living in New Delhi and continues to be seen at political and family events with her husband and children.
