Regional disparities can significantly affect candidates’ UPSC exam performance, as they may influence access to resources, quality of education, and exposure to competitive environments. Aspirants from economically marginalized regions may face challenges in accessing study materials and coaching, resulting in potential knowledge gaps. Moreover, disparities can impact confidence levels and motivation, as well as lead to geographic biases in evaluations. In light of these challenges, equal opportunities for all aspirants must be created to ensure a fair examination process, fostering inclusivity.
