Saket Ias

Saket Ias is located at 13 A, Bund Road in the Allen Ganj area of Allahabad. If you’re looking for us, we’re right near the Adelchy Girls Hostel. This part of town is a bit quieter than the main markets, which is good for what we do. Preparing for the IAS isn't something you can do in a noisy place. Our building is a bit older, with that typical Allahabad feel to it. Inside, it’s mostly just books, desks, and people trying to focus. We don’t have any slick receptionists or high-tech gadgets. It’s just us and the students. We spend a lot of time looking over old question papers and trying to make sense of the new trends in the exams. The 211002 area has a lot of history with education, so we feel right at home here. It’s a lot of long hours, sometimes starting early in the morning and going until the street lights come on. We often see students walking over from the hostel nearby to use the library or sit in on a session. It’s a very grounded place. We don’t use a lot of fancy words to describe ourselves. We are just a group of people who know the struggle of these exams and provide a space for others to prepare. The windows look out onto the road, and sometimes you can hear the birds in the trees outside. It’s a practical, straightforward place for serious study.
