Despite Being Visually Impaired, Roshan Kumar Clears JPSC; Set To Become Officer
Roshan Kumar, despite being visually impaired and facing financial hardships, secured the 340th rank in the Jharkhand Public Service Commission exam. An inspiring story has emerged from Koderma in Jharkhand, where a sister devoted her time and effort to support her visually impaired brother, becoming his eyes and guiding him to the examination hall. Acting as a scribe during the exam, she wrote the entire answer sheet, resulting in her brother's success at the age of 22. Roshan Kumar, despite being visually impaired and facing financial hardships, secured the 340th rank in the Jharkhand Public Service Commission exam and was selected for the Jharkhand Finance Service. He suffers from a vision defect called Nystagmus, causing blurred vision since birth. Nonetheless, Roshan persevered through his challenges. His elder brother Sanjeev shared that Roshan was previously selected for a position in the post office and currently resides in Vardhman. Roshan's younger sister, Sneha, took on the role of scribe during the exam, reading questions and writing answers as dictated by her brother. Following his success in the preliminary exam, Sneha assisted him in preparing for the main exam by discussing mock test questions from the coaching institute over the phone and sending written answers in PDF format for review. Their efforts symbolised the deep love and dedication between the siblings. The entire family rejoiced when the exam results were announced. Sneha shared that Roshan often visited government offices where officials did not treat him properly. This experience motivated Roshan to become a senior officer to serve the needy and helpless. He faced significant difficulties while attempting to obtain a ration card, including the lack of assistance from helpline numbers, which compounded his challenges similar to those faced by ordinary citizens. The JPSC final result of the Combined Civil Service Examination 2023 was declared on July 25. This recruitment process was conducted to fill 342 vacancies across various state services in Jharkhand. To be eligible for the examination, candidates needed to hold a graduation degree from a recognised university or institution. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Pahadiya girl defies odds, cracks JPSC exam through self study
Dumka: In a story of hope, strength and perseverance, Babita Singh, a girl from Pahadiya community, cracked the Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) 2023 examination, whose results were announced on Friday. Babita, who hails from a particularly vulnerable tribal group (PVTG), is among the 342 candidates from across the state to have made the cut. What makes her stand out from the rest is her unwavering resolve to become a govt officer by overcoming the odds and resisting pressure from her family members and the community to get married. Babita, a resident of Asansol village under Dumka sadar block completed her graduation with mathematics from Sido-Kanhu Murmu University in Dumka in 2018. Her family members insisted her to get married after she failed to crack several competitive examinations. "We insisted her to get married as her attempts to crack competitive examinations for banking, railway and other services continued to turn futile but she remained adamant" said Babita's father Bindulal Singh, who works as a helper in a local private school. "Eventually, I relented," he added. "This was my second attempt to the JPSC examination in which I opted for Khorta language in the optional paper with the other compulsory papers," Babita told the TOI. Babita did not take tuitions and cracked the exam through self-study as she could not afford coaching fee. "I purchased books online and took help of YouTube and other digital platforms," she said.
