Out of the 202 candidates who received financial support under the scheme, 43 candidates have now qualified for the Civil Services Interviews, marking a significant milestone in the State’s efforts to nurture young administrative talent.

Under this initiative, the Government of Telangana, with support from Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL) through its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds, extended ₹1 lakh each as financial assistance to all 202 candidates who cleared the prelims, helping them focus on the Mains examination without financial barriers. This support enabled 43 of them to progress to the final interview stage.

SCCL Chairman and Managing Director Shri N. Balram stated that Singareni, as part of its CSR commitment, is proud to partner with the Government in implementing the Rajiv Gandhi Civils Abhayahastam Scheme. He expressed happiness over the achievements of the 43 aspirants and wished them success in securing top ranks in the Civil Services.

He further noted that in the previous year, 140 candidates who cleared the prelims received similar financial assistance, of whom 20 were selected for the interviews, and 7 ultimately succeeded in the Civil Services Examination.

This year’s selected candidates represent a broad spectrum of Telangana — with 12 from Rangareddy, 4 each from Warangal and Medchal–Malkajgiri, 3 each from Hyderabad and Nalgonda, 2 each from Medak, Jagitial, and Adilabad, and one each from several other districts.
