Preparation Strategy

Background

I come from a small town in Haryana, Hisar, and was raised in Gujarat. I'm a Chartered Accountant by qualification, which might seem unrelated to the UPSC, but it actually helped me develop strong analytical skills and attention to detail. I've always been interested in public service, and my family has been a huge source of motivation for me.
