The number of youth preparing for government jobs in India is in crores. Candidates work day and night for years to get a permanent job. In such an environment, if someone claims that he has passed not one or two, but a total of 19 central government recruitments, then it is natural to be surprised. Charu Pandey, a resident of Raipur, the capital of Chhattisgarh, is in the headlines these days for exactly this reason. As inspiring as his extraordinary success story is, it has also become the cause of a major controversy and new debate on social media.
The journey started with just the search for a permanent job.
When Charu Pandey set out at the age of 23, his goal was simple—to somehow secure a secure and permanent government job. Instead of relying on any one exam, he started filling the forms for the vacancies in different departments. Being from Mathematics background, he had good command over basic concepts.
Through years of strict discipline, hours of practice every day, and tireless efforts, he passed various stages of many of the toughest recruitment examinations in the country.
Charu tried his luck in these major exams:
-
SSC CGL, CHSL and MTS (Various level examinations of Staff Selection Commission)
-
Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) examinations of
-
SBI and IBPS (Banking Sector Clerk and PO Recruitment)
Internet fight: Prerna vs wastage of seats
As soon as the video of Charu Pandey’s success went viral on social media and he started being honored on various platforms, netizens were divided into two clear factions. In India’s competitive examination culture, very practical arguments are being put forward from both sides regarding this kind of achievement.
Let us understand from the table below what is the opinion of people on this matter:
| The logic of those who appreciate (Inspiration Group) | Concerns of those raising questions (Critical Group) |
| Proof of Patience and Consistency: In today’s era where it is difficult to crack a prelims exam, cracking 19 exams shows extraordinary talent and hard work. | Loss of opportunities (Seat Wasting): Critics say that when the same candidate makes it to the list of several exams and does not join, those seats remain vacant and the rights of others are compromised. |
| Respect for hard work: It is like a booster for any candidate that if honest hard work is done in the right direction, success is certain. | What should be the scale of the award?: Some users raised the question that how fair is it to give honors only on the basis of passing examinations, when the ultimate contribution will be in a single job. |
| Rules of Competition: The rules of examination are same for everyone. The one who scores the best will be named in the merit list. There is no one’s fault in this. | System constraints: People believe that this also shows the condition of the country’s employment system, where youth are forced to fill dozens of forms for a secure future. |
? “I didn’t plan to set a record for so many exams”
On his success, Charu Pandey says that his intention was never to create any record or block seats. His only aim was to choose a better future for himself. Due to his maths background, his family had different expectations from him, but he made competitive exams his main goal. Today when his entire family is happy with this success, he too is feeling proud.
Big questions arise on the definition of success
The story of Charu Pandey is no longer limited to the personal victory of just one candidate. This has raised many serious questions before the entire coaching and competitive exam industry of India. Should passing more than one examination be the sole measure of youth’s talent? Or should there be such changes in our waiting list and recruitment system so that after the selection of one person, the seats of other eligible candidates are not affected and the entire process remains transparent? Whatever may be the reason, Charu has proved through his hard work that if the dedication is true then no achievement is impossible.
