I am Anudeep Durishetty, IAS officer of 2018 batch and All India Rank 1 in the UPSC Civil Services Examination 2017. I secured this rank in my 5th attempt. Over the course of my long tryst with UPSC, I had learnt a lot from my mistakes and I consciously worked to rectify them. I intend this blog to be a repository of my experience so that you don’t repeat the same errors. You’ll find posts on my journey so far, preparation strategy for GS, essay, optional, answer writing and other peripheral aspects relevant to Civils preparation. Aspirants may post their queries in the comments section.
Apart from these, I also plan to write about topics of general interest that fascinate me. I am a native of Telangana and my hobbies are football, reading and meditation. I love Arsenal, Lionel Messi and Roger Federer.
Sir, can you please describe your life as an IAS officer?
This guy is a cheat!!! Although being an Income Tax Commissioner at the time of appearing for UPSC CSE 2017, he has marked himself as OBC-NC category.

Just curious why your previous experience in IRS doesn’t find mention in any part of your blog (not even in ‘About Me’)? Is it not an achievement worth mentioning!
