This Milk Seller’s Son, Who Cleared BPSC At 35, Shares Tips For Aspirants – News18

BPSC (Bihar Public Service Commission) conducts its annual recruitment examination to fill the vacancies in the state administration of Bihar. It is considered to be one of the toughest exams to crack. It can, however, be cleared with unwavering dedication, and the same was done by a candidate named Manoj Kumar Yadav.

Manoj hails from Ishakchak, Bhagalpur and his father Suresh Prasad Yadav works as a milk seller. Manoj cleared the BPSC exam at the age of 35 and secured the 457th rank. He shared certain aspects of his life in a chat with News18.

Manoj said, “Being a person belonging to a middle-class family, I aspired to get a job soon since childhood and support my family. Father did not have money to help me in the preparations for BPSC. Then I secured a job in the Indian Air Force in 2001 and continued working there until 2010. After that, I returned home and started working in a private company. I also started preparing for the BPSC exam in my spare time. I had attempted the exam twice in the past as well but could succeed only on the third attempt.”

Manoj also didn’t lose courage despite being 35 years old. According to him, age never becomes a roadblock in the path of success. He advised aspiring candidates to keep working hard to accomplish their goals. He said that if the candidates rely on self-study and do it properly they can achieve success in the BPSC exam. He further said that the candidates aspiring to take up jobs in BPSC should start preparing for it during the time of graduation only.
