My observation:

Most of the time members were not looking at me and looking in their note book or whatever and only chairman was observing me. Except for 2 cases when chairman nodded in affirmative nobody nodded in yes or no. In the very beginning I had some nicks but after that I was able to middle the ball. Lets see if those shots went to the boundary or not! 


We will post UPSC Interview Transcripts regularly under the Interview Preparation Initiative.
