Team Udayavani, Aug 5, 2020, 3:59 PM IST
Following the announcement of UPSC exam results on Tuesday, Rahul Modi began trending on Twitter.
The reason – a candidate whose name ironically was a combination of names of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Rahul Modi, roll number 6312980, secured the 420th rank, according to the list of qualified candidates announced by the UPSC on Tuesday.

“Can’t get more bizarre than this – Rank no. 420 – Rahul Modi! Need I say more!” said Ananth Rupanagudi, who describes himself as a railway bureaucrat, on Twitter.
