@TETRACYCLINEbhai abhi bhi umeed bandhe ho...sahi hai

Around 100 people in office. Unusual or normal for this time?

@CaesarUsual Around same number of people yesterday too
BTW Yesterday around 8PM I even saw attendance going to negative

28th September 2019 to 7th October 2018: Mains Exam were conducted.
20th December 2019: i.e. within74 daysof conducting the Mains exam, UPSC declared the result. Vacancy 780
This is slower than CSE2017 round when Mains result was declared within68 daysof completing the Mains exam. vacancy 980
copied fromMrunal.org

As per trend, It is expected in next 2-3 days.

@Caesarthere may be more people ; I saw negative count yesterday which means that some people went in without marking they are entering and did only leaving part

Baith k sab rajya sabha debate na dekh rhe ho

Saxena sahab has had a good reputation so far. But his "soon" might extend upto a week. All this post does is that it reassures us that 24-25 as some sources predicted are not the likely dates. But then we knew that anyways.

@bevancomsaid inMains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread:

Bhai log life mein bahut kuch sahi nahi hota.
They were given numbers by people of india to do this and they r doing it.
I was in full favour of abrogation of article 370 and even for nrc for assam but cab isnt understandable and neither is nationwide nrc.
As for misguiding youth we r already misguided.I had the chance to study in the elite institutions of the country and had the chance to interact with even more.What is taught in the name of so called humanities optional subject is demeaning of our armed forces and only teaches the good deeds of few people who were there when ncert curriculum,ignou curriculum was designed.
I even had the chance to read whole of ignou course for socio and sometimes feel pity and sad of the way our freedom fighters other than gandhi r portrayed and the extreme negative light in which hindu religion is portrayed.
I had the chance to listen to officers sitting in MEA feel sad of thier extreme orientations.
I had the chance to read the subject "social transformation in india" in one of elite institutions of social science and felt sad of the way kashmir situation is shown.They always talk of pampora case and without proof profs point fingers at army but never told about what had happened before army went there(read girija tikoo gruesome death and rape).They point what is happening today but I know the horrific reality when I ask people like parents and grandparents who had to leave their home,business etc which they had built over years in middle of night.
So dear friends things r never fair in life.
I also feel sad of they way tina dabi is able to get thru pre while someone close to me could not as she was from general category.
I also feel being cheated when obc friends of mine with much better salaries than mine were able to get into better iits and iims than mine with 78 percentile while i could not at more than 99.
I feel cheated when previous goverments brought such a scheme where my sister could only get into lady hardinge medical college with better marks while someone from other caste with lesser marks managed aiims.
I feel cheated when a leader says minorities have first right over nations resources as someone in power needed votes from specific community.
I feel cheated when I paid 8 lakh tax last year while someone with a 35k stipend protests for a increase in fees from 10 rupees to 600.And this 8 lakh was because my parents worn torn clothes 20 years back so that they can save money on their childs educations since the day she is born.
So friends somethings are not fair and mistakes do happen in life whether being born in a specific group,or mistakes from people.
Mistakes might have happened in passage of these bills but government was given power by people of India to enact laws and it is within their right to do so just as it was within right of vp singh govt to bring quota as it was within democratic framework or virtual collapse of abdulla govt in 1990 as it was elected with democratic framework
Jabh pehle mistakes huyi to everybody was quite and we consider it as normal and instead consider what is happening today as mistake.Who knows what happened yesterday was a mistake and what is happening today is correct.

P.S-To comment a move as good or bad we must have knowledge from not only what hindu has been writing but from a wide wide wide range of sources extending over years books and authors.And I believe most of us(99.999999%) arent qualified to do so(including me) don't have it.
So yes some moves will be good for some and bad for otbers.Just as in past even bad moves got passed and many including family suffered so as this time shall also pass.

Unlike comments on the top this was not neutral and was not written as a upsc answer.These are not there to hurt anybody feelings but was a compilation of my experiences and extensive reading of social topics,newspapers and lextures since 2011

victory has defeated you

@Champakwho is he vaise?

@kochikaameBrutal truth : A sweet uncle who has worked in UPSC and now is trying to monetize that position. Also, validation from aspirants makes up for the lack thereof from other sources like his actual job.

friends, 'the body' bahut achhi movie hai.

@MadamSir spanish thrillers are very interesting, watch 'the invisible guest' if u haven't.

Still 9 people in there..

@Caesarye 9 bande aaj sone nhi denge lagta hai
