Civil Services Mains 2020 Results: In or Out ? Way ahead, gratitude and Pain
The Civils Mains result has been declared. This thread is for sharing your grief , joy , mixed feelings - absolutely anything and everything.
EiChan,My original response was about 2 things - identity crisis pe my personal opinion, and glorification of hinduism as something perfect. I agree with you perfectly when you say hinduism is changin gradually. I never contested that. My point is that we are still in a state of flux and during this period of change our multiple identities may come under stress and conflict with eash other leading to identity crisis.
I don’t know if pbm is a hypocrite or stooge of some political masters, that is not what I want to talk about besides uske article mujhe toh smjh nhi aate. My only defence for him was the defence of intellectual freedom to question , probe , scrutinise societal issues, religion etc
Your issue seems to be dont criticise x unless you criticise y and z as well. If that is how we are supposed to proceed then i am never saying rajma chawal sucks unless i also say chole chawal and dal chawal are also not perfect 😂
If you or pbm will try to portray my religion in bad light just because it has some problems,I have every right to compare my religion with other religions on that basis.
When Hindus vote as a group,pbm will cry why Hindus r getting polarised but When Muslims vote as a group,he will term it as victory of secularism.
People like him will cry about how sanskritisation of tribals is happening ,but will not utter a word when missionaries convert the poor tribals en masse , using their rice bag tactics.
So in above cases ,his focus is not on polarization or preserving tribal identify,rather on how to criticize Hindus .
Religion is not rajma chawal ,it is a way of life for us . For u maybe,it is just another commodity like shirt or rajma chawal🤣🤣,that is why u r having an identity crisis perhaps .
You have every right to criticise x ,y or z but if they are living together in a society ,you can't play pick nd choose.

Sorry to interrupt the discussion. I was looking for some guidance. I am planning to join AWFG (subject to the selection :P ). Since, mentorship/feedback is not a part of the programme (AWFG), I was thinking to join MGP as well. Would it be manageable, or would I be sailing in two altogether different boats? Also, would Shabbir Sir's Essay programme be advisable, considering I would be doing all these?

As I said, everyone is aware of problems here . But just because of that we won't abandon our self esteem.
Nd if u will pick nd choose,others will too. You won't decide when to do so nd when not to do
Reading this book which was mentioned in Saumya Sharma's Bllog.
Came across this.
Your views?
P.S: Accidently posted the second page, first.It's a nice book. Can pluck out examples for ethics and essays. And fun to read too.
Ethics ke liye hai yeh book ? I have done my class notes and decode ethics by Mudit Jain Sir. Need to do this one too ?
You don't need to do it. If you like reading stuff, if you can take out some extra time, it fun to read. Compulsory toh nahi hai.
Reading toh bilkul pasand nhi hai 😂😂
Jai Shree Ram !
Guys/Girls, this might sound out of the blue but fits perfectly into the title of this thread ! 
On a serious note, could seniors/experienced candidates and candidates who have cleared mains before(once/multiple times), list out a strategy/framework which guarantees a sure shot place in the Interview round. A well thought out framework and pointers as to individual papers would really help.

Hi dost, I’m confident that the link I am sharing here would be shared on DKT, Youtube in a couple of months. Have a glimpse.

I did it for long time and it does enhance taste to another level, ofc beating takes a lot of strength.
And then oneandheri raat I decided to cut sugar in my consumption. Coffee gone , tea gone and now only on milk(sometimes with bournvita) :(
I also try to control my sugar intake.. but cant leave coffee.. 😅
No one else but me who drinks their coffee without milk & sugar? Avengers, Assemble!
This needs another level of dedication. I cannot resist milk and sugar in coffee if I have them so I choose a less harder one - I won't have any coffee at home only.
Honestly, One reason why I left having milk and sugar was because I missed the hazelnut cappuccino I would have in Delhi. My hometown isn't blessed enough to have those fancy cafes/Starbucks :P

I have never stepped inside a Starbucks so I honestly don’t know what I’m missing. The one time I had had expensive airport coffee I pretty much hated it. Business people ke aas-pass cool lagne ke liye koi toh fancy ghatiya coffee peeni padi. Having read the coffee debate nothing beats a good filter coffee. Especially one from an Aaryas chain in south India. Close competitors be found at either Karnataka Bhavan or Adyar Ananda Bhavan in Green park.

And this double attitude of labelling groups in not exclusive to hindu- muslim debate, you see the same hypocrisy when backwards vote for any party in group and its called vote bank politics, while when 80% members of an upper caste vote for a party its called vikas.And you can always pick and choose if one group is so dominant that When you think about india the pictire that comes to mind is not of a christian going to church but that do hindu playing holi diwali.
80%of higher caste people voting for a lowet caste PM alone should tell you something.
Caste, superstition and other backwardness should be addressed for all the religions equally and immediately. But "intellectualism" in India is interpreted as trashing Hinduism. Putting down Hindus and then keep kicking them. This practice in itself is equally backwards and medieval.
If you want to call yourself intellectual, you should be able to address all the backwardness in society without sounding like a biased elitist.
Ambedkar did it, why can't modern day wannabe intellectuals.
@Jammu Oh yes Bhai, this is indeed a very detailed and informative write up, had read it before too. I sincerely hope he makes it this time.Anything you would like to add personally ?
Yes dost, personally I have the recipe of NOT clearing mains
- not seeing Mains syllabus
- not practising Mains PYQ
