A seminar on ‘How to Crack Civil Services on the First Attempt: UPSC Master Class’ was organized by VINGS Media and G5 Media Group, in collaboration with 21st Century IAS Academy, at Loyola Academy in Alwal on Friday. P Krishna Pradeep, Chairman of 21st Century IAS Academy, interacted with students and elaborated on the legitimate authority that civil servants hold to serve society.

He emphasized the importance of commitment in achieving the goal of becoming a civil servant and driving societal change. As an example, he cited IAS officer Revu Mutyala Raju, who, with dedication and perseverance, built a bridge in his village, ensuring connectivity for a community that previously had no road transport.

Dr. Bhavani Shankar, Director and Chief Mentor of 21st Century IAS Academy, provided valuable insights into the UPSC exam process and the profound impact of civil servants on society.

He also announced the launch of the Civils Aspirants Club at Loyola Academy to support students preparing for the Civil Services Examination. During the event, books on Civil Services, authored by the team of KP’s 21st Century IAS Academy, were unveiled by the Principal.
