Hi All
I am writing blog after long long time. Reason is not only I was busy with General Elections but also I ask the question of title of this writing to me everytime. I wonder whether I should write or not. But today thought to write although not very useful content but lot of aspirants want me to do so.
I am just pondering over whether the change of trend of mains is ok or not. And that too all of a sudden. CSE 2013 mains was tragic as it gave very less time to prepare. I have seen aspirants with my own good eyes who do nothing but prepare for UPSC for all their attempts but alas could not pass. But now these moves of UPSC goes above my head. CSAT 2014 was again tough and lengthy although manageable. GS of paper 1 was a bit tougher than previous year. But my real worry is mains. If mains GS also becomes a slaughter then it is too dicey an exam and highly luck oriented. Mains toughness has increased. Decreasing interview marks is a much awaited step although i personally am in favor decreasing it further and that too fixing a criterion.
Now, trends have changed and new syllabus is there for GS mains. So, my previous articles on GS preparation sound less resourceful. One need to find more resources. Mrunal is doing a good job in guiding aspirants. I am an ardent follwoer of his blog. He has mentioned all the resources which one need to add to what we used to follow in 2007 to 2009 era.
But my suggestion to asprinats is the same. Whatever change UPSC wanst to bring let them but we should do so much hard work that they stand defeated. It is 3 battlle war and we have to win. We have to work harder every time. No failure can defeat us. We will stand here where they try make us fall. I cherish Agnipath poem as recited my favourite Big B:
वृक्ष हों भले खड़े
हों घने, हों बड़े
एक पत्र छाँह भी
मांग मत! मांग मत! मांग मत!
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!
तू न थकेगा कभी
तू न थमेगा कभी
तू न मुड़ेगा कभी
कर शपथ! कर शपथ! कर शपथ!
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!
यह महान दृश्य है
चल रहा मनुष्य है
अश्रु-स्वेद-रक्त से
लथ-पथ! लथ-पथ! लथ-पथ!
अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ! अग्निपथ!
May Waheguru G make you an IAS officer
