    Yes there is a reservation allocated for Physically challenged person... You can become an IAS officer if you meet certain condition which will be tested during the medical test i.e your disability level should be above certain percent which will be examined by medical authorities and according to that your postings will be allocated when you clear your prelims and mains..... So don't worry about that try to prepare for the exam well and do the exam well you'll be surely posted as an IAS officer if you are really qualified and eligible. ALL THE BEST.

    Dear Friend,

    Yes , you can be an IAS officer.

    IAS stands for Indian Administrative Services . For that you must passed three stages which are such as.

    Preliminary Exam
    Main Exam
    Interview

    For IAS exam no physically requirements , so handicapped candidate are also eligible.

    But for that exam you must be under some requirements which are :

    >> Candidate must be under 21-30 years.

    >> Candidate must be passed his/her graduation and also can apply in last year of graduation.

    >> Candidate must be citizen of India.

    Good Luck

    relaxation:-


    1. age relaxation for physically handicapped candidates:- 10 years of age relaxation.
