After the Mark sheet comes, analyse and improvise. That’s the secret. Keep on working and there is a thing called LUCK. Have patience.”

“It is one of the most mediocre preferences of the Jammu and Kashmir,” a senior IAS officer told Kashmir Life. “There are quite a few in the first 200 which does not offer a clear idea about the capacity of the students from the state.”

One of the factors, another IAS officer said, could be that the UPSC examinations and the Combined Competitive Examination were having a clash of dates. “Most of the students remained busy with the CCE and could not chase their UPSC dreams,” the officer said. “The state government may have to see how to manage this clash in the schedules in the CCE so that our share in the all India service is not compromised.”

The other interesting facet of the results was that the Kashmiri Pandits who had literally stopped being part of all India services have started their return/ There are various candidates from the community who have actually made it to the list.
