Shaukath started writing the UPSC examination for the first time in 2016. This was his seventh attempt and he came out with flying colours.

The Public Service Commission of 2021 has selected 685 candidates throughout the country and Shaukath is one of the few who are selected from Karnataka. Shaukath comes from a financially poor family. His father Sheikh Abdul drives a taxi for a living, while his mother Maimuna is a housewife.

An elated Mohammed Shaukath Azeem said, “My parents, who stressed on my education even during financial difficulties are my inspiration. I used to prepare everyday for five hours before the examination. Not only studying, but the social knowledge helped me a lot. I will most probably get selected for revenue or chartered accountancy. Selection process will be held within two months.”
