Candidates from rural backgrounds face unique challenges in UPSC preparation, including limited access to quality resources and coaching institutes. They often lack mentorship and structured guidance, making it difficult to navigate the vast syllabus. Internet connectivity can be a barrier, hindering their ability to access online study materials or participate in discussion forums. Additionally, socio-economic factors may limit their time for focused study while balancing family responsibilities. Building a strong support network and seeking community resources can help bridge these gaps, enabling more equitable preparation opportunities for rural candidates.
