Meet Tenzing Yangki, first woman IPS officer of Arunachal Pradesh

IPS Tenzing Yangki happens to be Arunachal Pradesh’s inaugural female IPS officer. Despite being the daughter of an affluent IRS and IAS officer, Tenzing, unmoved by the comforts bestowed upon her, chose the path of public service. Her father (now late) transitioned his own career from bureaucracy to politics earlier. She secured an impressive All India Rank (AIR) of 545 in the renowned UPSC Civil Services Examination of 2022. Prior to this triumph, Tenzing had triumphed in the Arunachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) exam in 2017. Tenzing’s story is a testament to the latent potential and capabilities of women, inspiring others to pursue their aspirations.
