Safna Nazarudeen, youngest Muslim woman from Kerala to crack UPSC with All India Rank 45, now serves as Labour Commissioner. Her journey from a Kendriya Vidyalaya student to an IAS officer reveals the power of early focus, disciplined routines and a desire to serve.
Growing up in Valiyavila, Thiruvananthapuram, Safna Nazarudeen was surrounded by the world of public service. Her father rose from the ranks of the Kerala Police, eventually retiring as an inspector. Her mother worked as a typist in the state employment exchange. From an early age, Safna watched the values of discipline, dedication, and community service take shape in her household.
It was around class 8 when she first entertained the idea of joining the civil services, not because she knew the mechanics of the exam, but because she sensed that an IAS officer could do a lot for society.
She attended Kendriya Vidyalaya, excelling academically and choosing the social sciences stream, against her father’s wish for science. Undeterred, she pursued a BA in Economics at Mar Ivanios College, topping the Kerala University in her batch.
CRACKING THE UPSC IN HER FIRST ATTEMPT
In 2020, at the age of 23, Safna cleared the Union Public Service Commission exam in her first attempt, securing All India Rank 45. She became the youngest Muslim woman from Kerala to enter the IAS.
Her preparation followed a rigorous pattern: she turned off social media, spent two hours daily on newspapers, attended coaching classes, and devoted 7-10 hours to self-study every day. She also kept a dedicated notebook to jot down what she studied for weekend revision.
Public speaking was a challenge at first, so she practised by speaking on selected topics daily in front of a mirror, a method suggested by her mentors.
FROM ASSISTANT COLLECTOR TO LABOUR COMMISSIONER
Once she entered the Kerala cadre of the IAS (Batch 2020), Safna was posted in Malappuram district as Deputy or Assistant Collector. Over time, she rose to become the Labour Commissioner, heading the Labour Commissionerate, Government of Kerala (Thozhil Bhavan, Thiruvananthapuram).
Her role now involves dealing with migrant labour issues, irregular employment, unemployment and implementation of labour laws across multiple industries.
In a recent government order, she was also given an additional charge as Director of the Fisheries Department.
VALUES, APPROACH AND LEADERSHIP STYLE
While the public often assumes that bureaucrats are always under strong political pressure, Safna says the reality is more complex. Multiple stakeholders need to be consulted and aligned before solutions that benefit all can be implemented. She says that while busy days are inevitable, there are also comparatively lighter days and that the job offers a mix of responsibility and reasonable balance.
Her early life, seeing a working‐class household, understanding privilege and the importance of service, shaped her commitment. She has spoken of recognising during her school days that she was more privileged than many, and that propelled her to aspire to serve people who were less advantaged.
WHAT HER STORY OFFERS TO ASPIRANTS
Start early with your goal: Safna’s idea of joining IAS surfaced as a teenager, even without full clarity of the exam system.
Make your dream your own: It wasn’t family pressure; it was her personal choice, and she owned it.
Structure matters: A disciplined routine, self-study and regular revision helped build momentum.
Complement knowledge with skills: She recognised the importance of speaking and presentation early.
Service mindset: Her ambition was not just personal status but to bring change and fairness for others.
LOOKING FORWARD
At a still young age in her bureaucratic career, Safna’s journey is already remarkable. But there is room ahead for deeper policy initiatives, sectoral reforms in labour, and perhaps district- or state-wide programmes that shape livelihoods and rights. Her trajectory suggests that when the aspiration aligns with preparation and execution, leadership roles in public service open up, and they carry the potential to impact lives.

In a groundbreaking revelation, Roxtern Aerospace has introduced a paradigm-shift flying supercar, harnessing the cutting-edge power of hydrogen fuel cell technology. This visionary aircraft, conceptualized and brought to life under the inventive leadership of CEO and Chief Inventor Mohammad Furkan Shoaib, is poised to redefine the aviation industry with its exceptional blend of efficiency, speed, and safety.
Mohammad Furkan shared exciting news from Roxtern Aerospace about the unveiling of their innovative Flying Supercar powered by hydrogen fuel cell technology. A patent has been published for this supercar, which promises quieter take-offs, faster speeds, improved safety, and zero emissions.
Specifications Overview
The Roxtern Aerospace flying supercar stands as a pinnacle of innovation, tailored for urban air mobility and intercity flights. With a two-passenger payload capacity, this sleek vehicle spans 10.5 meters in length, flaunts an 11-meter wingspan, and reaches a height of 2.3 meters. Boasting a maximum takeoff weight of 1450 kg and an empty weight of 1250 kg, the flying supercar achieves a remarkable endurance of 100 minutes, propelling itself at speeds of up to 300 km/h and covering a substantial range of 500 km.
Propulsion System
The heart of this marvel lies in Roxtern Aerospace’s unwavering commitment to efficiency and innovation. Eight propellers, strategically mounted for vertical takeoff and landing, not only minimize propeller noise for discreet take-offs and landings but also reduce disc loading and enhance hovering efficiency. During horizontal flight, a sophisticated electric jet engine comprising 12 units ensures higher forward flight speed and efficiency, making it an optimal choice for swift intercity travel.
Safety Features
Roxtern Aerospace’s flying supercar distinguishes itself with a comprehensive safety system. Multiple motors and propellers facilitate safe vertical takeoff and landing, ensuring a secure descent in the event of propeller or motor failure. Simultaneously, multiple electric jet engines engage during cruise flight, providing redundancy in case of engine failure, elevating the overall safety profile of the aircraft.
To further fortify safety, multiple hydrogen fuel cells power the aircraft, offering redundancy in case of fuel cell failure. The incorporation of multiple batteries acts as a fail-safe mechanism, ensuring a secure landing in the event of a complete fuel cell system failure.
Additional Safety Measures
In a testament to safety innovation, Roxtern Aerospace has incorporated features to mitigate risks during unforeseen circumstances. Parachutes, seamlessly integrated and ready to deploy in the event of multiple motor and propeller failures, guarantee a safe descent to the ground.
Furthermore, strategically placed airbags within the aircraft are designed to eject and reduce crash forces during emergency landings on both solid ground and water surfaces. This additional layer of safety underscores Roxtern Aerospace’s unwavering commitment to passenger well-being and accident prevention.
The unveiling of Roxtern Aerospace’s flying supercar, spearheaded by Shoaib’s inventive leadership, signifies a pivotal shift in the aerospace industry. By merging cutting-edge technology with an unyielding commitment to safety, this aircraft emerges as a key player in shaping the future of urban air mobility and intercity travel.
Earlier in September 2021, the world was introduced to Asia’s first hybrid flying car, developed by Vinata Aeromobility. The innovator behind Asia’s first hybrid flying car, Mohammed Furkan Shoaib, was the chief technology officer of Vinata Aeromibility, a start-up based in Chennai.
Furkan, from Kannauj (Kanpur) Uttar Pradesh, is an Indian inventor, an aeronautical engineer as well as a certified UAV pilot. He is an expert in Aerospace Design and UAV Engineering. He has a passion for making advanced aircraft and UAVs. He also has experience in the research and development of UAVs and aircraft.

Supreme Court Gives Relief to IPS Officer Abdur Rahman, Asks Centre to Revisit VRS Rejection.
New Delhi:
In a significant ruling, the Supreme Court has set aside the Union Home Ministry’s decision rejecting the voluntary retirement request of former Maharashtra cadre IPS officer Abdur Rahman and directed the Central Government to reconsider his application afresh within three months.
A Bench comprising Justice P.S. Narasimha and Justice Alok Aradhe held that the Centre had failed to adequately examine the complaints and disciplinary issues cited while rejecting Rahman’s Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) application in 2019.
The court’s decision comes after a prolonged legal battle initiated by Rahman, who had sought voluntary retirement from the Indian Police Service in August 2019 but was denied permission by the government due to pending disciplinary proceedings and complaints against him.
Supreme Court Sets Aside 2019 Rejection Order
Abdur Rahman had submitted a notice seeking voluntary retirement under Rule 16(2A) of the All India Services (Death-cum-Retirement Benefits) Rules, 1958, in August 2019.
The Ministry of Home Affairs subsequently rejected the request on October 25, 2019, citing pending complaints and disciplinary matters.
Allowing Rahman’s plea, the Supreme Court observed that the Central Government had not undertaken a detailed examination of the complaints before rejecting the VRS application.
“In view of the above discussion and analysis, we are of the opinion that the Central Government has not examined the complaints in detail before taking the decision dated October 25, 2019, of not accepting the notice for voluntary retirement,” the Bench noted.
The Court directed the Centre to reconsider the request in light of all available material and take a fresh decision within three months.
Court Asks Centre to Consider Subsequent Charge Sheets
The Supreme Court also took note of developments that occurred after the original rejection order.
The Maharashtra Government subsequently issued charge sheets against Rahman in three separate matters, including a 2022 case linked to his participation in protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).
However, the Court observed that despite the passage of several years, disciplinary proceedings in these cases had not reached a conclusion.
Taking this into account, the Bench directed the Central Government to evaluate both the original complaints and the subsequent disciplinary proceedings while reconsidering the VRS application.
The Court stated that the inability of the authorities to conclude disciplinary proceedings despite the passage of time was an important factor that warranted a fresh review of the matter.
Complaints Against the IPS Officer
According to records placed before the Court, Rahman faced multiple allegations during his service.
These included:
Allegations of torturing a person in 2014.
Contracting a second marriage in 2016 without obtaining the consent of his first wife.
Delivering a public speech in 2019 allegedly in violation of service conduct rules.
Subsequent disciplinary proceedings related to his participation in anti-CAA protests.
The Court did not examine the merits of these allegations but emphasized that the Centre must properly evaluate all relevant facts before arriving at a decision on his retirement request.
Who Is IPS Officer Abdur Rahman?
Abdur Rahman is a former 1997 batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer of the Maharashtra cadre who served the state police force for more than two decades before emerging as a prominent public voice on issues related to governance, constitutional values, minority rights, and social justice.
Born on January 8, 1973, in West Champaran district of Bihar, Rahman comes from a farming family.
Educational Background
Rahman completed his schooling at Bipin High School in Bettiah and later pursued higher studies in Patna.
He graduated with a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) degree in Civil Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur in 1995 before qualifying for the Civil Services Examination.
Career in the Indian Police Service
Rahman joined the Indian Police Service on September 7, 1997, and was allotted the Maharashtra cadre.
Over a policing career spanning more than 22 years, he held several important assignments across Maharashtra.
His major postings included:
Assistant Superintendent of Police, Latur
One of his earliest assignments after joining the service.
Superintendent of Police
He served in districts such as:
Dhule
Yavatmal
Chandrapur
During his tenure in Dhule, he reportedly led several anti-dacoity operations targeting criminal gangs operating along national highways.
Principal, Police Training School, Solapur
Rahman later headed the Police Training School in Solapur, contributing to police training and capacity building.
Additional Commissioner of Police, Pune
He served as Additional Commissioner of Police (Administration) in Pune City Police.
Inspector General of Police
His final posting in service was as Special Inspector General at the Maharashtra State Human Rights Commission (MSHRC).
Resignation During Citizenship Amendment Act Protests
Rahman gained national attention in December 2019 after publicly opposing the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).
On December 11, 2019, shortly after the Citizenship Amendment Bill was passed in Parliament, he announced his resignation from service, describing the legislation as unconstitutional and discriminatory.
He stated that his decision was an act of “civil disobedience” and a protest against what he viewed as a threat to India’s pluralistic and secular character.
However, by that time, his earlier request for voluntary retirement was already under consideration and later became the subject of legal disputes.
Long Legal Battle Over Retirement Status
Following the rejection of his VRS application, Rahman challenged the government’s decision before judicial forums.
The dispute continued for several years, creating uncertainty regarding his formal separation from government service.
The Supreme Court’s latest order does not automatically grant voluntary retirement but requires the Central Government to reassess the application and take a reasoned decision after examining all relevant facts and subsequent developments.
Author, Public Speaker and Social Activist
After stepping away from active policing, Rahman increasingly focused on public engagement, research, and writing.
He has authored several books examining issues related to governance, social inclusion, and political representation.
His notable works include:
Denial and Deprivation: Indian Muslims after the Sachar Committee and Ranganath Mishra Commission Reports
A study examining socio-economic challenges faced by Indian Muslims.
Absent in Politics and Power: Political Exclusion of Indian Muslims
An analysis of minority representation in political institutions.
Communal Crimes and National Integration
A work exploring governance, communal harmony, and national integration.
Brief Foray into Electoral Politics
Ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Rahman briefly entered electoral politics.
He was announced as a candidate for the Dhule parliamentary constituency by the Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi (VBA), led by Prakash Ambedkar.
However, legal uncertainty surrounding his retirement status reportedly affected his candidature, and he did not emerge as a major electoral contender.
What Happens Next?
Following the Supreme Court’s ruling, the Ministry of Home Affairs will now be required to conduct a fresh examination of Abdur Rahman’s voluntary retirement application.
The Centre has been given three months to take a final decision after considering the original allegations, subsequent charge sheets, and the prolonged pendency of disciplinary proceedings.
The outcome of the review will determine whether Rahman’s long-pending request for voluntary retirement is finally accepted or rejected once again after detailed scrutiny.
