I gave one at Rau (completely factual) and one at Samkalp (good informal discussion).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>To view all IAS Interview Transcripts,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forumias.com\/blog\/interview-transcript\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">visit this page<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>For full Interview Preparation Guide:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forumias.com\/blog\/interview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click Here<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Current Affairs For UPSC Exam 2022:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/forumias.com\/blog\/current-affairs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click Here<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<div><strong>(This transcript has been posted by a community member of ForumIAS)<\/strong><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Board:\u00a0M Sathyavathy Ma\u2019am Optional: Physics Hobbies: Hindi Poetry and Teaching To view all IAS Interview Transcripts 2021,\u00a0visit this page Chairperson: What is Quantum Tunnelling?
