Business tycoon Anand Mahindra showered praise on Arunachal Pradesh’s first woman IPS officer, Tenzin Yangki.

Yangki hails from Tawang and became the first woman from the state to achieve the feat of joining the Indian Police Service. She received congratulatory messages from Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu and several others online.

Anand Mahindra, Chairman of Mahindra & Mahindra, wrote on X: “Tenzin Yangki from Tawang has become the first woman from Arunachal Pradesh to join the Indian Police Service.
An academician, a civil servant, and now an IPS officer, she carries forward the legacy of service from her parents while carving her own path of excellence. Being first is never easy. It means you walk alone at first, so that others may one day walk beside you. Don’t be afraid of walking alone today… others will follow.”

Mahindra’s message has been widely appreciated online, with netizens sharing it as an inspirational post.

Arunachal Pradesh CM Prema Khandu posted on X, “Heartfelt congratulations to Miss Tenzin Yangki from Tawang District on becoming the first woman IPS officer from Arunachal Pradesh. Her remarkable journey from the serene mountains of Arunachal to the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy, Hyderabad reflects courage, determination, and an unwavering sense of duty. Tenzin’s achievement is not just a personal milestone but a proud moment for our entire State. She embodies the spirit of Nari Shakti and will inspire countless young Arunachali daughters to dream big and serve the nation with pride. Wishing her a bright, impactful, and fulfilling career in the service of the country.”

Yangki served in the Arunachal Pradesh state government after clearing the Arunachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) exam in 2017. She gained valuable experience while working in the state government, which encouraged her to appear for the UPSC Civil Services Examination (CSE).

She finally cleared the UPSC 2022 exam with an All India Rank (AIR) of 545, becoming the first woman IPS officer from the state.

Yangki’s father, Thupten Tempa, was an IAS officer and state minister, while her mother, Jigmi Choden, is a retired secretary from the state government.
