I am Srushti Deshmukh Gowda, an IAS officer of 2019 batch and posted in the Madhya Pradesh Cadre. I am a resident of Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh and have completed my studies, from schooling to engineering from Bhopal. I have done chemical engineering as my graduation and passed out in the year 2018. By God’s grace I cracked UPSC Civil services examination in my very First attempt with Rank 5 and scored the highest marks in Mains General Studies Papers 1 to 4 (470) in CSE 2018.
After completing my academic training at the prestigious LBSNAA, Mussoorie, I did my district training from Dindori, Madhya Pradesh where I got an exposure of the tribal way of living as the district is a Scheduled district. Right now I am posted as SDM Gadarwara, Narsinghpur dealing with revenue court, law and order issues, and Local elections.
I try to take out time for reading as it’s a hobby since my childhood. I prefer Non Fiction ranging from philosophy & spirituality to science, technology, history and Memoirs. My mother taught me Yoga and meditation and I’ve tried to make it a part of my regular routine. I’m a nature lover and also like to write poetry sometimes. This blog is an effort to share Resources for UPSC preparation and also my experiences as a young lady officer in the field.
