Mental health refers to the ability to maintain a balance between emotions, desires, ambitions, and ideals in daily life. It also means the ability to face and accept the realities of life. The objective of this research is to study the mental health of trainees studying in teacher training programs based on gender, government, and private colleges. A sample of 600 trainees was selected for this research. The standardized Mental Health Test (MBH-SS) tool developed by Arun Kumar Singh and Alpana Sen Gupta was used for data collection.
