No, 12th marksheet is not required for UPSC if you have done Polytechnic Diploma: Students who have done a two-year course in civil, electrical, or mechanical from a Polytechnic are considered equivalent to 12th pass. Diploma is a different kind of qualification that focuses more on practical skills and training. Diploma holders are often called junior engineers in India. After doing a Diploma in civil engineering, one starts working in junior or assistant positions.

In my opinion, if you want to prepare for UPSC or any other competitive exams later, you can pursue a BA in Political Science, Economics, History, or Sociology. Since their syllabus is heavily equipped with GK, Indian and world history, public policy, public administration, Indian and world politics, it'll be easier for you to strengthen your base.
