THE Raipur district administration has begun pre-interview training for candidates selected for the UPSC Examination 2025 under Project Anubhav, with the aim of strengthening confidence, personality development and presentation skills among young aspirants. The initiative is being implemented under the guidance of Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai. The training programme is being conducted at the Collector’s office in Raipur, where candidates are being assessed through structured mock interviews.

 

A panel of subject experts is evaluating the aspirants and offering practical guidance to help them prepare effectively for the final UPSC interview stage. The expert panel includes Collector Gaurav Singh, District Panchayat CEO Kumar Bishwaranjan, IPS officer Ishu Agrawal, senior DCM of Railways Awadhesh Kumar Trivedi, and Bhuwal Singh, assistant professor from Science College.

 

During the mock interviews, panel members questioned the candidates on a wide range of topics and provided detailed feedback on their responses, body language, clarity of thought and overall presentation. On the day, mock interviews were conducted for two candidates, Harsh Verma and Raman Patel. Each aspirant was evaluated for approximately 45 to 50 minutes through an intensive interaction designed to simulate the actual UPSC interview environment.

 

Officials said that Project Anubhav is intended to give selected candidates exposure to real-life interview conditions and expert insights, enabling them to approach the final stage of the civil services examination with greater preparedness and confidence. The district administration plans to continue similar sessions for other shortlisted candidates in the coming days.
