Today we meet Rahul Sankanur. Rahul secured AIR 17 in the 2018 Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) Civil Service Examination. In this episode, we get to know more about the topper's UPSC preparation journey over a period of 4 attempts at the exam.

His UPSC CSE Journey:
CSE-’15 – Prelims – Mains – Personality Test – Not in Final List
CSE-’16 – Prelims – Mains – Personality Test – Not in Final List
CSE-’17 – Prelims – Mains – Didn't clear Mains
CSE-’18 – Prelims – Mains – Personality Test – AIR 17

Unlike most of the aspirants who have an IAS/IPS officer (or an incident) that inspired them, he had none. Factors such as the simplicity of his father, secular and egalitarian outlook of his mother and overall family’s service orientation influenced him to aspire for a life based on public welfare. Also, his stay in Sri Ramakrishna Vidyashala, Mysuru and subsequent study of Swami Vivekananda literature further strengthened the resolve for public service.
In this episode, Rahul shares the learnings from his preparation journey and important Dos and Don'ts for the UPSC exam.

This is a story of sheer hard work, determination, self-motivation, and smart approach towards the UPSC Preparation over a period of 4 years. Must watch for all IAS aspirants to understand the mistake made in the earlier attempts. #UPSC2020

Anand belongs to a family where his parents taught him to be hardworking and self-confident. They are resident of Siwan (a small area in Bihar). His parents were not educated as well as he, but they always supported him in his studies.

His mother Krishna is a housewife but she always motivated him to prepare for the examination. She always told him not to give up and never stop doing hard work. His father Vishnu Dayal is working as a Warrant Officer at Air Force, he is a very strict man and always told his son to be disciplined.

His parents always told him to value knowledge but not money. So, this helped him in taking the decision to prepare for UPSC CSE. He was in the last year of his Engineering when he decided that he would like to go for Civil Service Examination. And his parents supported him after his failures also, which helped him to never get disheartened by his failures.
