In India, landing a government job is a cherished aspiration for many individuals, often pursued through cracking the competitive Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exam.
However, not everyone possesses the means and opportunities to realize this ambition. The journey to conquer this challenging examination demands immense dedication and effort.
Recently, a viral video captured a Zomato delivery agent, stuck amidst traffic, engrossed in UPSC exam preparation on his mobile device.
Ayussh Sanghi, a former CA turned educator assisting UPSC Civil Services Examination (CSE) aspirants, shared this inspiring footage on X (formerly Twitter), accompanied by a poignant remark: “After witnessing this scene, one might find no other motivation to persevere in their studies.”
