Raised by his mother, Ayush completed his engineering in Electronics Communication from NIT Kurukshetra. His journey into civil services began with clearing the Haryana PCS examination in 2019, leading to a job in the Excise and Taxation Department. Undeterred, Ayush aimed higher, securing 550th rank in UPSC 2020, followed by selection in DANICS. In UPSC 2021, he achieved a commendable 430th rank, earning him the prestigious IPS post.
