A claim is viral across social media alleging that Anjali Birla, the daughter of Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, has become an IAS officer without clearing the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) examination.<\/p>\n

A parody account<\/a> of social media activist Dhruv Rathee recently claimed that Anjali Birla was a model by profession and by dint of her father’s powerful position, she cleared the UPSC examination without actually taking the test. The post has racked up a whopping 25 Lakh views and has been re-tweeted more than 10,000 times.<\/p>\n

India is the only country where you can clear UPSC without sitting in the examination.<\/p>\n

But for that you have to be born as a daughter of Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla.<\/p>\n

Anjali Birla D\/o Om Birla cleared UPSC without giving any examination, she is a model by profession.<\/p>\n
