Karnati Varun Reddy, a resident of Miryalguda in Telangana, secured 29th rank in the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE). This achievement paved the way for him to pursue a B.Tech in Computer Science at the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay.

Before becoming an IAS officer, Reddy served as an Indian Revenue Service (IRS) officer. His impressive career continued as he took on significant roles, including being the Collector of Nirmal district and Additional Collector of Kumuram Bheem Asifabad district.
His work in the Integrated Tribal Development Agency (ITDA) marked his impactful contributions to various development schemes. At present, Karnati Varun Reddy serves as the Chairman and Managing Director of the Telangana State Northern Power Distribution Company Limited (TSNPDCL).
His journey is not just a personal triumph but a source of inspiration. His mother, P. Nagamani, serves as Additional Director in the Agriculture Department; his father, Dr. Janardhan Reddy, is an Ophthalmologist.
Varun’s elder brother is a surgeon at Kakatiya Medical College, Warangal. Karnati Varun Reddy’s inspiring story portrays how dedication and resilience can turn challenges into triumphs, inspiring future generations to pursue their dreams with determination.
