The places that first come to mind when someone mentions preparing for the IAS are probably Old Rajinder Nagar (ORN) or Mukherjee Nagar, both in Delhi. In other words, IAS aspirants usually flock to Delhi for coaching as it is believed to be the best headstart any candidate can get. But this is precisely where RICE IAS changes the game for you in West Bengal. Wondering how? Read on for the scoop.
If we look back, India’s first civil servant was Sri Satyendranath Tagore from West Bengal. And that is not all, Surendranath Banerjee and Subhash Chandra Bose are just two more of the IAS officers that the state has produced. However, in recent years, these numbers have been dwindling. Stepping up to the challenge - RICE Education has launched RICE IAS.
In the words of Prof (Dr) Samit Ray, the Chairman of RICE Education, “RICE has joined hands with Destination IAS, Delhi, one of the most renowned institutions that has been training next-gen IAS officers for 23 years. RICE Education and Destination IAS, with a combined experience of over 60 years of teaching, are in the best position to educate aspiring IAS, IPS, & IFS officers from Kolkata and the surrounding areas.”

So what sets RICE IAS apart from the rest? There are so many reasons - but let’s highlight 6 reasons to make your decision easier today:
1. RICE: a trusted name in Education
RICE Education started in 1985 and over the last 38 years has become the last word in education for competitive exams. They have trained almost 1.5 lakh successful candidates who have been employed in various prestigious positions in both state and central governments. Armed with their years of experience and expert faculty, RICE Methodology on overall guidance, learning process, evaluation, practice & exam support gives students an edge over all others. So, whether you talk about quality education or dependability or global best practices - these are assured at RICE IAS.
Prof D P Agarwal, Former Chairman of UPSC of India, is the Chief Mentor to RICE and Adamas Group. He guides the faculty members with the best trend in teaching for CSE success. Also, he continues to interact with students of RICE IAS, guiding them with the best preparation strategies.

2. The RICE methodology
The years and volume of experience mean that RICE has developed their own winning formula - the RICE Methodology - that gives results. Here’s what you sign up for:
● High-quality study material
● Fortnightly current-affairs magazines
● Practice sets for review of completed topics

● Monthly exams, regular assessments and mock tests to check progress
● Prelims tests to build depth of knowledge
● Doubt clearing sessions
● Individual performance analysis and feedback and discussion of answers
● CSAT support including Reading Comprehension, Numerical Ability and Reasoning
3. Delhi Ecosystem but in your own city
Imagine uprooting your whole life and moving to Delhi to pursue your IAS prep from Mukherjee Nagar or ORN - it involves renting a place, arranging your meals as well as dealing with the tremendous pressure of preparing for one of the toughest competitive exams, while staying on your own. Even so, adjusting to a different city, with a huge shift in culture and food can make it particularly hard to cope.
RICE IAS makes it as easy as it can get. The course features content and test series in sync with the Delhi market’s current trends and is conducted by a full-time team of expert faculty members from Delhi. They offer students support, attention and one-on-one personal mentoring over the 1250+ teaching hours.
4. State of the Art Infrastructure
RICE IAS offers state-of-the-art infrastructure so you can get the best out of your tenure. Here’s looking at the most important elements:
● Central location so that students can easily access the campus
● An excellent library with a large range of books and reference material
● A reading room for students’ benefit
● Classrooms are air-conditioned for students’ comfort
● Small batch sizes to ensure individual attention and mentoring
5. Intensive Residential Bootcamp for final preparation
For the top students, their final preparation is carried out at an exclusive Intensive Bootcamp, where students are put up at the Adamas University Campus in Barasat. Here students are given every facility required for them to dedicate themselves to their final preparation, with the help of RICE’s expert mentorship.
6. IAS Prep without burning a hole in your pocket
Of course, the cherry on the cake is the fact that in taking up the IAS from WB challenge, RICE Education has subsidised the entire programme. So students essentially get the benefits of the Delhi IAS ecosystem and coaching for Prelims, Mains and Interview (personality test) stages of the IAS exam, as a package - but at a fraction of the cost.
With so many success stories - RICE Education is standing at the crossroads to offer you the best in the world of CSE preparation - without actually moving out of the state. And irrespective of whether you want to study through the week, or can only devote the weekends - RICE IAS has programmes tailored to both needs.
Prof (Dr) Ray adds, "IAS is a journey of excellence that evolves your personality. RICE IAS, with the best faculty, infrastructure, study resources and library with a commendable stock, will propel you through that journey."
