Gwalior ASI’s son cracks UPSC 

Ashish Raghuvanshi, the 23-year-old son of Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Naresh Raghuvanshi, posted at the Superintendent of Police (SP) office in Gwalior, has successfully cracked the UPSC Civil Services Examination 2024, securing All India Rank (AIR) 202 in his very first attempt.

Hailing from Digoda village in Ashoknagar district, Ashish completed his primary education in his hometown. He later pursued his graduation from the Delhi University (DU), completing it in 2022. It was during this period that he began preparing for the civil services exam.

Ashish followed the basic study materials

Speaking to ANI, Ashish said, “I have followed the basic study materials recommended by the toppers, nothing different. I continued to read the newspaper daily and adhered to the syllabus. I had always dreamt of becoming an IAS since childhood. Additionally, my father is a member of the Madhya Pradesh police, and I came across information about the higher posts of SP and Collector. Additionally, my school in Ashok Nagar was located in front of the collector’s office, and the collector often visited our school on various occasions. So it inspired me that I too want to reach such a post.”

He further said that the one who worked hard consistently, then he would get its results. One should not get hopeless if they fail to succeed in their first attempt.
