From Roots to Service: Vidyashala Alumnus in Indian Forest Service
We are proud to host Lochan Bopanna M S — Vidyashala alumnus (Batch 2013–18) from Madikeri, Kodagu — who has secured All India Rank 69 in the UPSC Indian Forest Service Examination 2024, in his very first attempt.
Lochan’s path reflects quiet determination and purpose-driven effort:
📍 From Kodagu to the University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad,
🌍 To an international semester at Tampere University, Finland,
📚 To full-time civil services preparation starting in 2022.
— 2nd attempt at CSE | 1st attempt at IFS — AIR 69
He credits the Vidyashala ecosystem—its vibrant learning culture and the intellectual and spiritual capital of our Swamijis and teachers—for shaping his discipline, resilience, and higher purpose. Lochan urges today’s students to use these opportunities fully, reminding us that focus amid distractions like social media is a key to success.
His agricultural studies and overseas stint added valuable depth, broadening his perspective on forests, ecosystems, and sustainable development.
Lochan’s journey reminds us all: when the forest calls, answer with courage.
Share your wishes or a memory of Lochan or Vidyashala in the comments—let’s inspire the next generation together!
