Professional Achievements
During her short stint in the State in Jammu & Kashmir as Principal Commissioner of Income Tax the department produced remarkable results. Four new income tax offices at moffusil stations were opened at Katra, Samba, Baramulla and Rajouri and were made operational. Her tremendous efforts for widening and deepening of tax base at all levels finally bore fruits and resulted in addition of substantial new tax payers.
Apart from a successful bureaucrat during her career, Sangeeta Gupta is known for her love for poetry and Abstract Art.
For her, abstract art is a means to reach the non-objective experiences that help shape the inner life. It is a witness to the fact that man’s spiritual needs do not disappear even in times engulfed by gross materialism. She strives to express the poetic vision in her works. Keeping in view her strong passion for painting and writing, one may think, what about her professional achievements as a Revenue officer. But the fact is that she has earned distinctions in different fields like art, literature, film making and civil services.

Greece, the birth place of ancient western culture is also defining a new era for itself as a mecca for contemporary arts along with its old-world charm, unhurried rhythm of living. It is pretty trendy yet relaxed, eating out is Greece’s national pastime. Interacting with several contemporary visual artists was a rewarding experience for the film maker. She decided to explore the inner life of the Greeks and connect it with its ancient glorious era. The outcome is this documentary GREECE: CONTINUUM OF CONSCIOUSNESS.
