List of Muslim candidates who qualified UPSC 2023

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) announced the results of the 2023 Civil Services Examination (CSE), with a Muslim candidate making it to the top 10 achievers

Out of the total 1,016 successful candidates, around 50 are from the Muslim community, accounting for only 49 percent of the successful candidates.

The percentage of successful Muslim candidates in the UPSC CSE has ranged from 2 to 6 percent over the years, which is lower than their population percentage in India

The performance of Muslim candidates on the UPSC Civil Services Examination has varied over the past decade, with last year marking the lowest performance in a decade

In 2010, a Muslim candidate emerged as the topper at the national level, and in 2009, a total of 31 Muslims made it to the selected candidates' list

The top three positions in the 2022 UPSC CSE were secured by women

It is important to address the underrepresentation of Muslim candidates and work towards improving their performance in the UPSC CSE
