[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.


@neyawn sir and others, what is your take?

This is the official Thread for discussion of Prelims Postponement, Please do not create new threads for the same.

Also for Right to Privacy wala passage, the answer can be A- 1 and 2 only. There were different answers in different coaching keys where some were marking 2 only as the answer but this article from which passage was lifted clearly talks about role of State to have institutions to ensure Right to Privacy

See, from my experience...you will get more marks from upsc officials keys. 
i have checked my comprehension from 4 different institutions. If all are giving same ..then it is right.
if there is discrepancies, i googled passage and studied its overall focus of the article and taken help of my friends in services.

what is the right answer for desher katha?? vision and vajiram giving different answer

Vision Answer is correct. The statements were verbatim lifted from book of Ishita Dube on Page 232. Hence, option A is correct

@Tokyo these answer keys are prepared by aspirants like us who have written mains or given Interview. 
So have confidence in your answer.


Even those who have failed to clear prelims in all the 6 attempts.

U will clear. Don't trust these keys in RC. I even don't bother to check.

@Equalizer  Your words have boosted my morale bro! I was damn insecure and anxious but the rational side of me also said ki variation 10 marks se zaada ka toh nahi hi hoga bhale hi csat mantra ya cl ki key ho. Thanks for helping bro.

@sunnykumarroy658377 In digital society wala question it should be A) 1 and 2, though I marked it as 2 only. It has again been picked from an article where the author talks about institutional intervention from the Govt. 

And going by the same methodology, malnutrition waale mein B) 2, 3, 4 and 5 should probably be the answer. What do you say?

Regarding Asset Allocation question, the most appropriate answer should be A.

It was taken from this article and focus is clearly on diversification to minimize risks

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/asset-allocation-is-key-to-good-investing/articleshow/56176386.cms

thnx yaar, its answer is certainly distrubiting wealth, whole pasaage or article isa bout divserification of risk(portfolio)..
