Three Sibling Pairs Pass India's Toughest Exam Together
Six siblings from three families studied side by side and all passed India's notoriously difficult civil service exam in the same year. Their stories prove that when determination meets family support, even the country's hardest challenges become conquerable.
Imagine studying for one of the world's toughest exams with your sibling, then both celebrating victory on results day. That's exactly what happened to three pairs of siblings in India who cracked the UPSC Civil Services Examination together.
Sisters Simran and Srishti from Agra, Uttar Pradesh, made history when they both passed the 2020 UPSC exam. Simran secured rank 474 on her second attempt, while younger sister Srishti scored even higher at rank 373 on her very first try.
In Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan, brothers Pankaj and Amit Kumawat took an even more remarkable path. The sons of a tailor studied without any coaching and passed the 2019 exam with nearly identical ranks: 423 and 424.
Their father's income was modest, but he prioritized education above everything else. The brothers had attempted the exam once before in 2018, learning from that experience to return stronger and achieve better results the second time around.
Sisters Anjali and Anamika Meena from Dausa, Rajasthan, also succeeded together in 2019. Anamika secured rank 116 while Anjali achieved rank 494, both following in their father's footsteps as an IAS officer.
The UPSC Civil Services Examination requires years of preparation, unwavering discipline, and exceptional determination. Thousands of hopeful candidates compete annually for just a few hundred positions in India's administrative services.
Why This Inspires
These stories shine because they reveal something powerful about shared dreams. When siblings study together, they don't just share textbooks and notes. They share late night doubts, celebrate small victories, and push each other forward when motivation fades.
The Kumawat brothers especially demonstrate that expensive coaching isn't the only path to success. With determination and family support, barriers that seem insurmountable become stepping stones.
These six young people are now IAS and IPS officers serving communities across India. But their greatest achievement might be showing millions of other aspiring civil servants that the journey becomes lighter when you don't walk it alone.
Success tastes sweeter when you can celebrate it with someone who knew every struggle along the way.
