KingMakers IAS Academy, known for producing top civil servants including visually challenged IFS officer N.L. Beno Zephine, celebrated a landmark inauguration event with former President Kovind.
Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], September 23: Hon’ble Shri Ram Nath Kovind, Former President of India, inaugurated the new premises of KingMakers IAS Academy in Anna Nagar, Chennai, on September 21, 2025, at 6:00 PM. The ceremony was graced by Shri G.K. Vasan, Member of Parliament, President of Tamil Maanila Congress, and Former Union Minister for Shipping, who attended as the Guest of Honour.
While addressing an audience comprising civil servants, faculty members, and aspirants, Shri Kovind commended the academy for its 12-year-long contribution to nation-building. He remarked, “Today, we are not merely inaugurating a new building of bricks and mortar, but laying the foundation of dreams, dedication, and determination. KingMakers IAS Academy stands as a beacon of inspiration for all those who aspire to serve the nation with integrity and commitment.”
He lauded the academy for empowering students from rural and socially disadvantaged backgrounds. “In just 12 years, KingMakers has produced over 1,000 civil servants for the nation, including two All India toppers, five Tamil Nadu toppers, and Ms N.L. Beno Zephine, India’s first 100% visually challenged IFS officer. These achievements reflect both academic excellence and a larger vision to empower the youth,” Shri Kovind noted.
Quoting Mahatma Gandhi, he reminded aspirants that “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others,” and urged them to pursue civil services not merely as a career but as a mission of integrity and empathy. He also invoked Swami Vivekananda’s call to “Arise, awake, and stop not till the goal is reached.”
On this occasion, KingMakers IAS Academy announced the launch of the KingMakers Nation Builders Scholarship, offering up to 100% scholarships for civil service aspirants, underscoring its commitment to inclusive education.
