Lucknow:

Lucknow’s Anshu Shukla bagged the first rank in PCS-J 2015, while Tahreem Khan and Shabeena Khan secured 4th and 10th ranks, respectively.

Tahreem cracked the examination in her first attempt and for Shabeena success came in the third attempt.

A law graduate from Dr Ram Manohar Lohiya National Law University, Lucknow, 24-year-old Tahreem declined her job offer to get into judicial services. “I got judicial clerkship in the Supreme Court but decided not to join. But I didn’t expect such a high rank,” she said. She comes from a judicial background. Her father Aftab Alam Khan is presently the registrar, UP State Information Commission.

For 31-year-old Shabeena who lost her father in 2012, the journey was not easy. “After his death, I started giving tuitions to support my family. I always wanted to get into judiciary so I prepared for many years hoping that one day I will succeed,” said Shabeena.

She is working currently as an excise inspector posted in Faizabad.
