Shakti was always a meritorious student, who performed extraordinary educational performances and achievements.
“He graduated from Allahabad University, and is a gold medalist. After that, he completed his MSC from Banaras Hindu University (BHU),” said Mr. Dubey.
Shakti had been preparing for the UPSC exam for a few years, and even enrolled in a coaching institute in Delhi during Kovid time. But after that, she returned home and studied on her own.
“She approved the exam in her third attempt. She reached the interview phase in her second attempt, but could not clean the exam then. But something better was in the store for her, and we see this result,” said an elected Mr. Dubey.
