When she was asked why she chose UPSC CSE, she said, " An unexamined life is not worth living. And when I examine my life in the end, it will not be in terms of how much property, wealth and status I have made but it will be in terms of how worthwhile I have been to the society. This I can do as an NGO or social worker, but the confidence I require will be given to me only by civil services."

I am an IAS officer & Mr.Ranbir Sharma, ex-collector Surajpur does not represent me. No one can represent the service single handedly. As I have stated in an earlier post the good & bad are in every profession, community & society. Power can only intoxicate the weak...not all..
