From the rural heart of Labhet village, Isha rose through sheer grit, studying at DAV Jamui, completing her schooling from DPS Bokaro, and earning her law degree from Chanakya National Law University, Patna, before heading to Delhi for UPSC preparation.

“My journey reflects that with dedication, even rural students can reach the highest platforms,” said Isha.

The final result of UPSC 2025 was announced on Tuesday, where Shakti Dubey of Prayagraj topped the ranks.
