Services (IES) Examination 2018 conducted by Union Public Service Commission

Deemed to be University, Bhubaneswar, in 2013. After completing his engineering
degree from KIIT, Mr Shekhar completed MTech from Indian Iinstitute of
Technology, Khargapur.
Reacting
to his success, he said, “I did not take any coaching for preparation of
engineering services examinations. The only reason that I could achieve success
in this examination is the study that I had done at KIIT University. There is
no point discussing whether only IITians or NITians get better marks, or the
engineering services is only for them.”Mr Shekhar said anyone who has patience,
