India’s Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exams, sat by young men and women who want to join the country’s vast civil service, are seen as one of the toughest tests in the world.
A million candidates apply to appear in the gruelling three-stage exam every year, with less than 1% making it to the second stage.
