A picture of three women posing with flower garlands is being shared on social media claiming them as three sisters who cleared UPSC examination together and became Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officers. Let’s verify the claim made in the post.
Claim: Photo of the three sisters who cleared UPSC examination and became Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officers.
Fact: The three sisters in the photo were felicitated for clearing the Rajasthan civil service examination (RAS – Rajasthan Administrative Service), not the Indian Civil Service Examination (UPSC).  The three sisters Kamala Chaudhary, Geeta Chaudhary, and Mamata Chaudhary have secured 32, 64, and 128 ranks in Rajasthan Administrative Service (RAS) Examination, and are natives of Jaipur district. Hence the claim made in the post is FALSE.
On reverse image search of the photo shared in the post, a similar photo was found in an article published by the ‘News 18 Hindi’ news website on 28 July 2019. This article reported that the three sisters from Rajasthan’s Saranga Ka Bas village were selected together in the Rajasthan Administrative Service (RAS) Examination. In the article, it is reported that the women’s mother, Meera Devi had laboured day and night in the farm fields to educate her daughters. The three sisters were felicitated for their success in the Rajasthan Administrative Service (RAS) Examination.
The ‘Jagran’ news website had published an article reporting the success story of the three sisters. According to the article, the three sisters Kamala Chaudhary, Geeta Chaudhary, and Mamata Chaudhary have secured 32, 64, and 128 ranks in Rajasthan Administrative Service (RAS) Examination. Further, this article reported that the three sisters had attempted the UPSC Examination and fell short by a few marks.
Several other news websites have also published articles about the success story of the three sisters. They can be seen here, and here. From, all these pieces of evidence, it can be concluded that the three sisters in the photo have cleared the Rajasthan Administrative Service (RAS) examination, not the UPSC.
To sum it up, these three sisters have secured ranks in Rajasthan Administrative Service (RAS) examination, not the UPSC.
