Deepak Rawat is a firebrand IAS officer from Uttarakhand in India. He is one of the most popular IAS officers on social media.
Wiki/Biography
Deepak Rawat was born into a modest family on 24 September 1977 (age 44 Years; as of 2021) in one of the most popular hill stations in India- Mussourie. His Zodiac sign is Libra.
While growing up in Musoourie, Deepak had developed an interest in collecting scraps like old watches, used polish boxes, worn-out utensils, etc. He was so much interested in scraps that he wanted to become a scrap dealer. He did his schooling from┬аSt. George’s College in Mussourie.
Though he wasn’t interested in taking science in his secondary classes, he had to take that under his family’s pressure. However, in his higher studies, he opted humanities over science. He moved to Delhi from Mussourie to pursue his higher studies, where he took admission at Hansraj College, Delhi University.
After completing his graduation in History from Hansraj College, Deepak attended Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) for his post-graduation in History. He also did his M.Phil. from JNU. When he had turned 24, his father refused to give him pocket money from then onwards and advised him to bear his expenses on his own. Interestingly, his JRF results were announced within a few days of his father’s advice, and he started getting┬атВ╣8000/month as a stipend, which was sufficient to bear his expenses. It was there while studying in Delhi that he came in the contact of some students from Bihar who were preparing for the Civil Services. Soon, he became friends with them and got inspired by them to prepare for the UPSC Examination. However, he couldn’t get success in his first two UPSC attempts. Though he cleared the examination in his third attempt, he couldn’t get the desired rank to become an IAS officer. He again prepared for the examination, and ultimately got the desired rank to become an IAS officer in his last attempt.
Family, Caste & Wife
Deepak Rawat was born into a Rajput Kshatriya Family. There is not much information about his parents and siblings. He met his future wife Vijeta Singh in Delhi; when he was studying in Hansraj College. Soon, they fell in love and got married to each other.
They went on to have a daughter named Dirisha and a son Divyansh.
His wife Vijeta is an officer in Judicial Services and has been a Metropolitan Magistrate at the Patiala House Court in Delhi.

I also want to be an IAS Officer sir
Dear Deepak: I am really impressed. I always wanted an IAS to do what
you are doing. You increased respect for IAS for me. I am a professor in
CS in a major US university and studied in Delhi and IISC. My wife’s
grandfather Manohar Lal Bhargava built the Har ki Pauri and was awarded
Rai Bahadur in 40’s. You are doing great in Haridwar. May God bless
you.
A great person without taking any ghoos I can see honesty and integrity on his face. I truly think he is very kind when he helps people. Ultimately his honesty will win. I wish I could call him to USA but he can write to Mr. Biden for a job in his administration. USA needs honest people.
Glad to know that Deepak Rawat Sir has been appointed as Kumaon Commissioner. It has come to know that he is an honest, sincere and dedicated Officer. Now my expectations have also alive as I have been writing since last 30 years for getting justice from Almora Magnesite Ltd. Jhiroli and District Administration Bageshwar. Both are throwing the ball from one to another and no one is keen to give me justice. My father has been deprived of with legitimate entitlement of one acre land at Sitarganj since 1977. I have been writing from my active service in the Force as well after the retirement in 2007 onwards but justice is still far away. On his appointment as Kumaon Commissioner, I hope he will enquire the matter and give justice to my family as well as all other affected people of Billori, Matela, Jhiroli, Karasibunga and Sinduri Villages. Wishing him all the best and a bright future. He is an asset to the Uttarakhand State. I will be extremely happy, if some one give me his personal email ID pease.
