Renu Raj got the second rank in her first attempt. "I am extremely happy to know the result. I have been preparing for the exam for the last one year," she said from Thiruvananthapuram.
Renu Raj, who works in a hospital in Kollam in Kerala, hails from Kottayam.
Third rank holder Nidhi said it is a proud moment for her to get selected in the examination. "It is really a proud moment. I put in lot of hard work and finally it paid," she said. Nidhi is presently assistant commissioner of customs and central excise.
A total of 1,236 candidates have been recommended for appointment to IAS, IFS, IPS and central services.
A total of 254 candidates have also been kept in a consolidated reserved list.
A total of 180 candidates have been recommended to IAS, with 32 to IFS, 150 to IPS, 710 to Central Services group 'A' and 292 to group 'B' services. It is the first time that the Commission is declaring the final results within four days of the closing date for the personality tests or interviews, a senior official said.
The civil services examination is conducted by the UPSC annually in three stages — preliminary, mains and interviews — to select candidates for the elite Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Foreign Service (IFS) and Indian Police Service (IPS), among others.
The civil services preliminary examination was conducted on August 24 last year at 2,137 venues in 59 centres across the country. About 9.45 lakh candidates had applied for it but approximately 4.51 lakh appeared for the examination.
Of these, 16,933 were declared qualified for the main examination, the official said. The main examination was held in December last year and, out of the 16,933 candidates, 16,286 appeared for it, an official said.
"The result of civil services main examination was declared on March 13 this year. 3,308 candidates were declared qualified for the personality test," the official said, adding that out of these, 3,303 appeared for the personality test, which were held from April 27 to June 30.
"In terms of the number of candidates and number of centres or sub-centres, this was the biggest examination ever conducted by the Commission," the official said.
