This is the amazing tale of IAS Divya Tanwar, a person of perseverance and determination. Divya persevered and passed this challenging exam twice because she didn't want to stop at just passing the CSE once. When she was just 21 years old, she started her journey by passing the UPSC exam and securing a desired position in the Indian Police Service (IPS).
But Divya had bigger goals in mind and was desperate to join the Indian Administrative Service (IAS). Despite her initial setbacks, she came back to the fight with a fresh resolve to achieve her IAS objectives.
Divya had hardships since the day she was born. Tucked away in the state of Haryana is the small town of Mahendragarh, where she was born. Divya had been without her father's constant guidance since she was twelve years old, so she faced life's challenges head-on with unwavering resolve. Her adventure started in the small government school hallways. In the absence of a family breadwinner, she pursued education.
Divya's dreams were dashed by financial constraints, but her unwavering spirit never wavered. With her mother's unwavering support, she overcame obstacles and relocated to Navodaya Vidyalaya to pursue her education. Armed with an unquenchable curiosity, Divya embarked on a journey of self-discovery, and her academic pursuits eventually led to a degree in Science.
Unaffected by budgetary constraints, Divya heeded the call of the Civil Services' allure. She started a strict study schedule and committed five to six hours a day to her pursuit of excellence in spite of her family obligations. She demonstrated her dedication to her studies by working her way up the ranks, winning the UPSC 2021 exam, earning an All India Rank (AIR-438), and obtaining a highly desirable position in the Indian Police Service (IPS).
But Divya had even higher ambitions: she was determined to join the prestigious Indian Administrative Service (IAS). With a resolute determination, she persevered through the challenges of preparation and embarked on a mission of atonement. Her tenacity paid off in the UPSC CSE 2022 exam, where she demonstrated her mettle once more and attained her long-held objective of receiving an AIR-105 to become an IAS officer.
