"It is my third attempt and I am very glad to secure Rank 401. I started IAS preparation after completing my graduation in Computer Science. I had visited Gujarat during my second attempt and Delhi for my third attempt. I have never attended any coaching class for the Civil Services," said Babitarani Swain.
"I am feeling great; it was my fifth attempt and I am very glad to achieve success for my hard work. My first preference is Indian Foreign Service (IFS) as I want to represent the country in a global stage," said Manoranjan Behera.
"After completing my B.Sc in Physics at Ravenshaw I completed my M.Sc at Pondicherry University and later moved to New Delhi to get some idea. I returned to my home town in Sambalpur and started my preparation while attending IGNOU classes at GM College. It was my first attempt," said Vedbhushan.
Candidates who appeared in the written examination last year can check the details and the respective results through the official site of UPSC at upsc.gov.in.
