The atmosphere at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy, Hyderabad was filled with exuberance and joy as soon as news reached that Aditya Srivastava, currently undergoing training for the Indian Police Service (IPS) has secured All India Rank 1 at the UPSC Civil Services Examination 2023.

The final results of the examination were released by the UPSC on Tuesday afternoon. A total of 1016 candidates have been recommended by the commission for different All India Services and central services.

Aditya, while speaking to news agency ANI, credited hard and smart work with consistency as keys to his success in the UPSC Civil Services Examination.

"I would just say that being consistent and hard work along with smart work is the key to doing whatever you want to achieve and the same holds well for this field as well," he told ANI.

"I was not expecting Rank 1, I was praying to God to get into the top 70, so that I can get into Indian Administrative Services (IAS). It was difficult because you consistently have to acknowledge your mistakes and then try to rectify them despite not knowing how to. But with the help of my mentors and seniors, I was able to achieve that," he said.

Srivastava achieved this brilliant feat in his third attempt. In his earlier attempt he secured the 236th rank and was selected for the Indian Police Service.

Talking about his journey to the top, Aditya revealed the uphill task he had to undertake.

"It was my third attempt and the journey has been tough and challenging. You have to realise your shortcomings, rectify them and for this, you have to toil hard," Srivastava told ANI.

Aditya hails from Lucknow and completed his B.Tech from IIT Kanpur. Before starting his preparation for the UPSC Civil Services Examination, he had worked with several private sector companies.

The three-stage Union Public Service Commission Civil Services Examination is conducted annually to recommend candidates as officers in the Indian Administrative Service, Indian Police Service, Indian Foreign Service and other central services.
