    i m unable to go delhi for classes due to some personal constraints...i want to do with manis stuff till december....sir please help me how to go abt and what materials to go through for pub adm(the right strategy).. i m a bit confused right now as to how to make a choice even though i have got all materials from my friends in delhi..plz help

    ReplyDelete
  8. @namratha since u appeared for prelims twice , u mut have quite good knowledge of general studies and i assume also of ur optionals .....

    For pub-ad I always adhered to books and believed in them rather than coaching materials . Read prasad and prasad and mohit bhattacharya thoroughly for 1st , and rajni goyal for 2nd paper . For topics not given in these books u can refer any third book or good coaching materials....

    one more thing ,focus on understanding rather than mugging ...

  10. Since u r in 2nd year u can't give exam in 2012 . And don't play with UPSC rules , in one earlier case UPSC have banned one such student from all UPSC exams in future. U can appear in exam in final year of ur course and certainly not before that .

  20. hi sir
    i am a dental surgeon by profssion and have quit my job to come to dehi to prepaere.
    although i havent jined any batches yet(all start around october)i have heard the name of vajiram through many poeple suggesting it as a good coaching centre
    my question sir is
    1 does coaching (vajiram in particular) help in any appreciable way as the cost of coaching and living in delhi is considerably high
    2 what books would you suggest for gs to one who has just started prep
    3lastly , while looking for accomodation what factors should i keep in mind?
    Thanks

    ReplyDelete
  21. @Birbal
    1)Any coaching just provide guidelines and help in completing you syllabus in time bounded manner and if one is very much focused and knows exactly what he has to study , he may not need coaching
    2) Start from NCERT books for geography and history and daily newspaper , I will soon provide a whole list of book on this blog as of now refer http://www.thepriest.in/2011/06/strategy-for-preparing-for-civil.html
    3) Three things :affordability , proximity to coaching centers and where you can get like minded people preparing for exam

  22. please give extract of administrative reforms commission 2nd, recommendation, i couldn't get it anywhere, and if possible provisional data of census 2011.. thank you

    For census there was one Yojana magazine dedicated to it , try to get it else u can refer to http://www.censusindia.gov.in/2011-prov-results/paper2/prov_results_paper2_india.html

  24. Sir, i am M.Sc in Biotechnology....this year i have cleared SSC in my 1st attempt....not sure about joining time....I want to prepare for CS 2012. My 1st optional is Chemistry as i am teaching this subject so quite comfortable....

    But i have some doubts..
    1. what should be 2nd optional wrt to less syllabus, good scoring and notes easily available??
    2. I am from a very small town in Haryana...so please guide me how to handle GS?? For CS 2012...when and from where should i collect notes??
    3. I am not interested in any coaching till my PRE...so how it would be if i join coaching for only 2nd optional in btw PRE and mains??

    ReplyDelete
  25. I would have liked if u had written ur name..anyway
    1)public ad is best..it will be useful even if upsc removes optional subject
    2)read daily newspaper and regarding notes for conventional u can get materials from bersarai near IIT rt now ,for current affairs take it in march for prelims
    3)I will not suggest taking coaching between mains ans pre..better if u dont have time before go for self study at that time ..atleast pub ad can be done by self study

    ReplyDelete
  26. Thanks a lot sir for ur advice

    I am Mukesh....

    1) For Pub ad how to start preparation. Will u guide me about study material and strategy??

    2)For GS...i could not understand exactly...notes of which institute and what topic??

    ReplyDelete
  27. @Mukesh
    1) for pub ad start from first paper with fadia and fadia...read first few chapters to get basics of pub ad , then read prasad and prasad for administrative thinkers along with mohit bhattacharya...last two books need to be completed fully
    2)for GS take full notes of either vajiram or sriram

    ReplyDelete
  28. is socio a wise take for new entrant in the field of civil servies.?? i plan to give cse 12, is socio good optional keeping in mind the fact that upsc may scrap optionals...?? is awasthi maheshwari nt required for pub adm when we complete prasad n prasad n mohit....??

    ReplyDelete
  29. i m reading polity from d d basu. it is very hard to read...cn i read laxmikant , will laxmikant be sufficient for mains exam...??

    ReplyDelete
  30. @prakash
    i did not read awasthi maheshwari , so i don't think its compulsory...socio is good combo with pubad and helps in writing essay.....
    dd basu is indeed very tough and i don't recommend it as primary book ,at max u can keep it as reference book...laxmikant is good engh as per my view...

  31. Sir I have been following your blog since quite a time now. I would like you to please include some suggestions for the very beginners, so that we utilize most of our time in preparing rather than planning.
    I have just started preparing for the exam, target is CSE 2012, have joined Vajiram for GS and Pub Ad.
    - Should we give equal time to GS, 2 optionals and CSAT from the first day itself or concentrte more on pre as its the necessary evil
    - what should be the right approach for CSAT
    - if possible, a rough daily plan need to be followed
    - how much time should be given to pre only b4 the the exam
    thank you for your time

    ReplyDelete
  32. @neha
    1)I will suggest you to start wholeheartedly for prelims january onwards .. till then divide time euqally for optionals and gs ....
    2)For CSAT pratice is the key for success ... try increasing speed as well as accuracy ...
    3)daily plan needs to be planned according to ur own priority..there cannot be one best way ...
    4) atleast 3 months is needed dedicated only to prelims if its ur first attempt....

    ReplyDelete
  33. Thank you Sir, 1 more thing i would like to know is
    - what is strategic difference btw preparing for pre and mains? In the coaching also emphasis mainly on the mains part.... is preparing from the mains prospective good enough for the pre or it needs some special treatment

    ReplyDelete
  34. Seeing the current trend the almost same type of knowledge is required for prelims as well as main, But since the pattern of paper is diff one have to treat differently the study material...
    Each and every thing you study for mains will be helpful in prelims , but for prelims one have to expand his horizon and try to cover as much as possible....
    One more thing since prelims is objective type ,it is easy to reproduce even if u have read something once or twice and hence easier to cover more thing......but for mains exam one have to read it again and again and hence coverage may not be that vast

    ReplyDelete
  35. Thanks a lot Sir, good luck for the exams ahead.

  36. hello sir, im new to dis blog... just read out our articles.. thank u for helping aspirants with ur notes. are u still undergo ur training still, how are u managing time for studying sir?? i have given a attempt dis yr but cud not qualify, preparing for 2012.. cud u pls help me in strategy for GS preparation. im finding it tough to cope up with. thank u sir in advance

    ReplyDelete
  37. @meghna....
    for GS preparation first complete conventional areas such as history geography polity etc..and then when time come for current affairs...I have given a list of reading material http://www.thepriest.in/2011/10/tips-for-preparing-general-studies.html ,this is minimum required.....Syllabus of GS is very vast so irrespective of how well u prepare u will feel crunch of time...but the right attitude is to keep your moral high and study wht u can ...you can go through http://www.thepriest.in/2011/10/part-2-tips-for-preparing-general.html

  42. Hello Sir,

    I came to know that you had another optional as Physics. Can you please put up a strategy or tips for the physics as well ? It would be of very much help for me. What was your score last year ?

    Thanks

  47. hi gaurav
    i am in final year of b.e in electronics and communication. I want to do IAS. is it possible to prepare for ias with a job in psu or i should join coaching after passing out.i also have a job at TCS.which one would be the best option as you know how much labour is required to prepare for it.kaushlendra mishra

    ReplyDelete
  48. Gaurav Sir,
    How was Physics exam yesterday?
    Another qs - suppose I get low rank in CSE-2011, can I attempt CSE-2012 mains without joining the training? Will my rank and service of CSE 2011 will be valid in CSE - 2012 if I will not get good rank again in 2012. Since you are appearing again, have you joined training program for IPS this year?
    Last qs - Does any candidate rejected for medical reasons usually?

    ReplyDelete
  49. @ kaushalendrs.... its alwayas better to do full time preparation but in case u want to do with job better join psu rather than joining tcs...in psu u can get leaves easily compared to private sector
    .
    @jahir one gets exemption from foundation course for giving mains but u have to join after giving mains....
    .
    yup candidates do get rejected in case they do not fulfill medical criteria..

  53. hi sakthi

  54. @ Gaurav sir

    Kindly help me regarding interview preparation..first of all which newspaper to study.right now i m studying hindu and indian express..which news talk shows to refer..and the list continues..sir kindly let me know in detail abt interview preparation n ur experience..
    Thanx

    ReplyDelete
  55. hindu and indian express is enough but the kind of reading required is different, you need to study even political news thoroughly now....discussion on FM gold after the evening news is good ....you need to prepare your complete biodata thoroughly ....a quick revision of optionals .....
    These are the basic things , I will write about interview prep in detail soon

    ReplyDelete
  56. @Gaurav Sir...... i need your advice for the Prelim..what slould be our strategy according to you seeing the concept based questions.basically for polity and science tech...do we need to study all the policy taken by Govt...also can we skip ancient and medieval parts of history.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Had i been at ur place i would have skipped medival and ancient history(i used to do this when i was preparing). One need to read policy initiative taken in recent time and policies which are in news...studying all policies may not be possible....regarding science and tech for prelims, i used to depend on knowledge gained in school....
    To tackle concept based question try to use all the knowledge u have about the subject and then eliminate options given

    I would be writing upsc 2013.I want to know is coaching really important in present level of intense competition to crack upsc. One more question i would like to ask that if i join coaching should i take optional subjects first or prepare for gs first.
    Thanking you
    with regards
    ashu.

    ReplyDelete
  70. Coaching has its own importance..but its not necessary to attend coaching.....i wil suggest to prepare gs first because upsc may change mains syllabus and may remove optional sunjects from all levels in near future

  71. i am in fyba first yr,want to become ips officer,plz give me some tips, as in what types of book i should read now....plz

  72. To become IPS officer u will need to give UPSC civil services exam . As of now you can start with ncert books of 6th to 12th standard for all subjects , along with daily newspaper and one monthly current affairs magazine.

  75. Hi
    thanks you starting the blog :)..i have got selected in cse 2013 and will get IPS and most probably home cadre.It was my second choice- IFS>IPS>IAS..But lately i am hearing very negative things about IFS.Moreover I am perplexed when i see some people in the list leaving 2+ years of seniority to go for IAS.These doubts are hovering in my mind and i am unable to concentrate for next attempt.I will be grateful if you could clear the aforementioned doubts here or on phone(if you dont mind sharing your number).

    thanks in advance :)

    ReplyDelete
  76. See in log run IAS provides better opportunity compared to IPS due better job condition and faster promotion. This happens due to policy errors and unwanted delays at the topmost level of bureaucracy. And at present no one at the top(manned by mostly IAS) wants to resolve these issues.
    As far as IFS is concerned , though the training duration is long , the job condition is at par with IAS and sometime even better. But inside country you wont be having much power compared to what IAS and IPS enjoys.
    Saying all, It all depends your mindset and your own choice of the job.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Thank you for the prompt reply :)

    Power doesnt occupy a top position in my list of things..I will try for IFS one last time just in case i dont get home cadre IPS.Hoping that i am not making a wrong decision(going solely by interest).

    Thanks once again

  81. Sir, Happy new year

    1 request........i am from haryana but gave civlis mains from mumbai due to extreme winter here, my masi lives there. 3 days back while i was travelling in mumbai local while boarding at some crowdy train somebody stole my new mobile Moto G 2nd. I had not even put the sim in that. I thought after reaching home (haryana) i will get the sim cut from some shop then i will put. So no issue of data security. and no need of contacting service provider to block the sim.

    Sir, i bought it from flipkart so email invoice i found its IMEI no- 353321069940479

    Sir, How can i get my mobile back. where should i file FIR, right now i am at my home place haryana.

    pls guide........is there any chance of getting my first smart phone back.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Technically speaking the FIR needs to be file in Mumbai only . But you can file FIR even in haryana which they can transfer to mumbai . But first of all there is tendency to avoid registering FIR on other are ..particularly of other state, and secondly transfer of FIR itself will take time .
    If you have someone in mumbai then get the case registered there , it will be better and fast . By running IMEI there are chances of getting your phone back.

  86. Dear Sir,

    I had appeared for Mains in 2012 and thereafter I failed to clear Prelims in 2013(for 1 mark) and 2014.For some personal constraints I couldnot manage to read anything but the newspaper after the results.

    Can I manage it with so less time? I can devote 12 hours daily. can u please suggest an appropriate strategy.

    Should I concentrate on GS and CSAT-2 ,and read optional after Prelims?

    Thank you

    ReplyDelete
  87. Yes you can do it since you already know what to study . Right now you should focus on revision of what already you have read plus current affairs plus practicing CSAT-2. And with hope that you must have atleast once prepared the optional fully, you should now completely focus on prelims exams

  88. hi sir.i am an IFS aspirant. i have choosen civil engineering ans chemistry as my optionals.please guide me how to prepare for GS,ENGLISH and CHEMISTRY.I am currently in delhi so can u please suggest me books and coaching if

    ReplyDelete
  89. I dont have much idea about Chemistry optional..For GS preparation syllabus is almost same as that of IAS so if you prepare accordingly you will easily be able to answer GS question. English is not that tough if you are comfortable with the language .

कर्ण और कृष्ण का संवाद - रामधारी सिंह 'दिनकर'

Following is excerpt from poem Rashmirathi written by Ram dhari singh dinkar. Karna reply to Krishna when he told story of his birth and ask him to join pandava side. सुन-सुन कर कर्ण अधीर हुआ, क्षण एक तनिक गंभीर हुआ,  फिर कहा "बड़ी यह माया है, जो कुछ आपने बताया है  दिनमणि से सुनकर वही कथा मैं भोग चुका हूँ ग्लानि व्यथा  मैं ध्यान जन्म का धरता हूँ, उन्मन यह सोचा करता हूँ,  कैसी होगी वह माँ कराल, निज तन से जो शिशु को निकाल  धाराओं में धर आती है, अथवा जीवित दफनाती है?  सेवती मास दस तक जिसको, पालती उदर में रख जिसको,  जीवन का अंश खिलाती है, अन्तर का रुधिर पिलाती है  आती फिर उसको फ़ेंक कहीं, नागिन होगी वह नारि नहीं  हे कृष्ण आप चुप ही रहिये, इस पर न अधिक कुछ भी कहिये  सुनना न चाहते तनिक श्रवण, जिस माँ ने मेरा किया जनन  वह नहीं नारि कुल्पाली थी, सर्पिणी परम विकराली थी  पत्थर समान उसका हिय था, सुत से समाज बढ़ कर प्रिय था  गोदी में आग लगा कर के, मेरा कुल-वंश छिपा कर के  दुश्मन का उसने काम किया, माताओं को बदनाम किया  माँ का पय भी न पीया मैंने, उलटे अभिशाप लिया मैंने  वह तो यशस्विनी बनी रह

एक पुलिसवाले की व्यथा

लोग अक्सर कहते हैं कि पुलिस सही तरीके से क्राइम कंट्रोल नहीं करती है लेकिन पुलिस करे तो करे क्या। उग्र भीड़ को क्राइम कंट्रोल करने पर आधारित एक लघु कथा। उन्मादी भीड़ हाथों में नंगी तलवारें, लाठी, डंडे लिए पागलों की तरह पुलिस वालों को पत्थर मार मार कर खदेड़ रही थी। उसकी पुलिस भीड़ से अपना असलाह और खुद को बचाते हुए पीछे हट रही थी। थानेदार का सर बुरी तरह फूट गया दो सिपाही उसे सँभालते हुए पीछे हट रहे थे बड़े अफसर, एस डी ऍम, सब मौके से गायब थे। ऑर्रडर देने वाला कोई दूर दूर तक नहीं था। भीड़ हावी होती जा रही थी। सब को कहीं न कही चोट लगी थी।भीड़ को लाठी डंडो से काबू करने के हालात तो बिलकुल भी नहीं थे। सबकी जान पर बनी हुई थी परंतु हाथ में लोड राइफल होते हुए भी जवान गोली चलाने से बच रहे थे, कैसी कायर स्तिथि थी। अचानक हवलदार बुधना को भीड़ ने पकड़ लिया और एक आदमी ने बुधना के सर पर कैरोसिन की गैलन उंडेल दी और दूसरे ने माचिस निकाली ही थी की धाँय की आवाज हुई और माचिस वाला जमीं पर लुढकने लगा।दूसरी आवाज में तेल के गैलन वाला जमीं पर कला बाजी खा रहा था । भीड़ जहां थी वहीँ थम गयी और उलटे पावँ भागने लगी लेकिन......अ

Scheme for creation of National Optical Fiber Network for Broadband connectivity of Panchayats

The Union Cabinet recently approved a scheme for creation of a National Optical Fiber Network (NOFN) for providing Broadband connectivity to Panchayats. The objective of the scheme is to extend the existing optical fiber network which is available up to district / block HQ’s level to the Gram Panchayat level initially by utilizing the Universal Service Obligation Fund (USOF). The cost of this initial phase of the NOFN scheme is likely to be about Rs.20,000 crore. A similar amount of investment is likely to be made by the private sector complementing the NOFN infrastructure while providing services to individual users. In economic terms, the benefits from the scheme are expected through additional employment, e-education, e-health, e-agriculture etc. and reduction in migration of rural population to urban areas. As per a study conducted by the World Bank, with every 10% increase in broadband penetration, there is an increase in GDP growth by 1.4%. NOFN will also facilitate implemen

रश्मिरथी ( सप्तम सर्ग ): कर्ण वध - रामधारी सिंह 'दिनकर'

1 निशा बीती, गगन का रूप दमका, किनारे पर किसी का चीर चमका। क्षितिज के पास लाली छा रही है, अतल से कौन ऊपर आ रही है ? संभाले शीश पर आलोक-मंडल दिशाओं में उड़ाती ज्योतिरंचल, किरण में स्निग्ध आतप फेंकती-सी, शिशिर कम्पित द्रुमों को सेंकती-सी, खगों का स्पर्श से कर पंख-मोचन कुसुम के पोंछती हिम-सिक्त लोचन, दिवस की स्वामिनी आई गगन में, उडा कुंकुम, जगा जीवन भुवन में । मगर, नर बुद्धि-मद से चूर होकर, अलग बैठा हुआ है दूर होकर, उषा पोंछे भला फिर आँख कैसे ? करे उन्मुक्त मन की पाँख कैसे ? मनुज विभ्राट् ज्ञानी हो चुका है, कुतुक का उत्स पानी हो चुका है, प्रकृति में कौन वह उत्साह खोजे ? सितारों के हृदय में राह खोजे ? विभा नर को नहीं भरमायगी यह है ? मनस्वी को कहाँ ले जायगी यह ? कभी मिलता नहीं आराम इसको, न छेड़ो, है अनेकों काम इसको । महाभारत मही पर चल रहा है, भुवन का भाग्य रण में जल रहा है। मनुज ललकारता फिरता मनुज को, मनुज ही मारता फिरता मनुज को । पुरुष की बुद्धि गौरव खो चुकी है, सहेली सर्पिणी की हो चुकी है, न छोड़ेगी किसी अपकर्म को वह, निगल ही जायगी सद्धर्म को वह । मरे अभिमन्यु अथवा भीष्म टूटें, पिता के प्राण

किसको नमन करूँ मैं भारत? - Kisko Naman Karu Mein Bharat?

A poem dedicated to the nation written by Ramdhari Singh "dinkar"... तुझको या तेरे नदीश, गिरि, वन को नमन करूँ, मैं ? मेरे प्यारे देश ! देह या मन को नमन करूँ मैं ? किसको नमन करूँ मैं भारत ? किसको नमन करूँ मैं ? भू के मानचित्र पर अंकित त्रिभुज, यही क्या तू है ? नर के नभश्चरण की दृढ़ कल्पना नहीं क्या तू है ? भेदों का ज्ञाता, निगूढ़ताओं का चिर ज्ञानी है मेरे प्यारे देश ! नहीं तू पत्थर है, पानी है जड़ताओं में छिपे किसी चेतन को नमन करूँ मैं ? भारत नहीं स्थान का वाचक, गुण विशेष नर का है एक देश का नहीं, शील यह भूमंडल भर का है जहाँ कहीं एकता अखंडित, जहाँ प्रेम का स्वर है देश-देश में वहाँ खड़ा भारत जीवित भास्कर है निखिल विश्व को जन्मभूमि-वंदन को नमन करूँ मैं ! खंडित है यह मही शैल से, सरिता से सागर से पर, जब भी दो हाथ निकल मिलते आ द्वीपांतर से तब खाई को पाट शून्य में महामोद मचता है दो द्वीपों के बीच सेतु यह भारत ही रचता है मंगलमय यह महासेतु-बंधन को नमन करूँ मैं ! दो हृदय के तार जहाँ भी जो जन जोड़ रहे हैं मित्र-भाव की ओर विश्व की
