Officials said the results of the candidates appearing in the UPSC’s written exams and interviews will be published on the website within 15 days of the date of the declaration of results.

UPSC Civil Services Toppers 2021

Despite the unpredictability of the result, UPSC CSE candidates are undeterred and continue on their difficult road. While cynics may find this sarcastic, aspirants know that every ounce of sweat and toil put into the dream will pay off, and we couldn’t agree more! After all, self-belief and the commitment to see one’s ambitions through are the essential marks of a leader and a change-maker.

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) revealed the results of the civil services test 2021 on Monday, with Shruti Sharma, Ankita Agarwal, and Gamini Singla taking first, second, and third place, respectively. It reported that 685 people had passed the coveted test, but it did not provide any other information on the applicants who had passed. According to the Commission, 244 of the successful applicants are from the general category, 73 from the Economically Weaker Sections, 203 from Other Backward Classes, 105 from Scheduled Castes, and 60 from Scheduled Tribes.
