Patna: M Rafi is buoyant with the maiden success of his student at the Civil Services exam held by UPSC. His confidence level in his own style of coaching has gone up after Azhar Jamal, a medical graduate and native of Siwan district of the state, cleared Civil Services 2010. Ranked 857, Jamal is one of 920 successful candidates whose results were announced earlier this month.
In 2010, Rafi, who is director of Sarvodaya Civil Services coaching centre in Patna, had successfully guided 17 Muslim candidates to clear Bihar civil services held by Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC). Adding another feather in his cap this year, his lone candidate Azhar Jamal has cleared national Civil Services exam 2010. Jamal is among 31 successful Muslim candidates at the civil services 2010.
“I was confident of the success as I had faith in the way I was guiding the candidate. Jamal’s success has proved my style of guidance is correct,” said Rafi while talking to TwoCircles.net.

Jamal was a medical graduate and yet he opted History and Urdu Literature. Thanks to Rafi’s guidance and his own labor and talent Jamal cleared the civil services through non-medical subjects.
“He came to me in 2007. Then he was final year student of four-year degree course in physiotherapy. I asked him how he would do it. He said, Sir I want to become IAS at any cost. And he began preparation in Urdu Literature and history at my coaching institute,” said Rafi.
