In the summer of 1940, the Maharaja of Jaipur, His Highness Sir Sawai Man Singh ji Bahadur brought home the legendry beautiful Princess Ayesha/Gayatri Devi, of Cooch Behar, as his bride. His Highness, the Maharaja Sahib, being a modern thinking ruler, was very concerned that Girls’ education was one field in which Jaipur was far behind other states & provinces in India. So, one morning he asked Her Highness what could be done to get the women out of the shackles of the ‘purdah’. ‘Give me a school and I will try’ she said, ‘Once the girls go to a school there will be no ‘purdah’ in a few years. His Highness immediately summoned his Prime Minister Sir Mirza Ismail, and the Education & Finance Minister, Rao Bahadur Amarnath Atal. The order to allot land and plans ready for the school building was given. Her Highness discussed her ideas with the two ministers - the foundation of Maharani Gayatri Devi School was, thus, laid.
