Bihar: A man from Bihar has been accused of falsely claiming that he secured the 440th rank in the prestigious Union Public Service Commission Civil Services Examination 2025 results. The claim reportedly led to local celebrations and media attention before discrepancies emerged.

The incident took place in the Fatehpur Village of Ariyaru Block in Sheikhpura district, where Ranjeet Yadav lives. 

As per the Live Hindustan, Ranjit of Sheikhpura himself has spread the word that he has cleared the UPSC examinations. As soon as the news spread, former MLA Vijay Samrat reached his home in Fatehpur and honored him with gifts. Mahuli Station House Officer Rampravesh Bharti also invited Ranjit to the police station, fed him sweets, and honored him. Ranjit was showered with the flowers and garlands. 

When this was investigated in depth, it was found that the UPSC Rank 440th did not belong to the Ranjit of Bihar but to Ranjith Kumar R, who is a resident of Karnataka’s Chikballapur, as per the live Hindustan report.
