A dramatic twist in UPSC CSE 2025 results: two Akanksha Singhs are locked in a battle for rank 301, pitting Bihar against Uttar Pradesh. The March 6 announcement listed 958 qualifiers, but this name clash has stolen the show.
Bihar’s Akanksha Singh, granddaughter of late Ranvir Sena leader Barmeshwar Singh alias Mukhiya, was first hailed for her feat. Congratulations poured in. Enter Ghazipur’s Akanksha Singh, who uploaded her interview admit card on social media. Its QR code confirms the exact roll number from UPSC’s list.
Conversely, the Bihar-shared document is allegedly a prelims admit card, with QR details not matching the final results. The discrepancy has sparked widespread speculation.
No word from UPSC or the Bihar family yet; a Monday clarification is rumored. Online discourse rages, blending regional pride with demands for proof.
Full breakdown: 317 general, 104 EWS, 306 OBC, 158 SC, 71 ST selected. This saga exposes vulnerabilities in result dissemination amid India’s cutthroat civil services race.
Beyond ranks, it spotlights how legacy names like Mukhiya’s amplify scrutiny. Resolution could restore faith or deepen divides—watch this space.
