No, thats not true. 25 pages are just the limit for some "text recognition", which i dont really know what it means. 
I recently scanned 50 pages through adobe scan. It wrked perfectly fine. I scan all my MGP papers through adobe scan. All of which are more than 25 pages

@Arrokoth wrote entire paper not realising the added pages. Completed the paper. (2019). 
However, since I did case studies earlier, the theory part 1-2 questions quality suffered.

Have been usingNotebloc since last few years. Was irritated by buggy advertisement of CamScanner. Notebloc is extremely lightweight, you can turn off the advertisement (by not allowing the app to connect internet), provides flexibility in resolution, no cap, and comes with a no nonsense approach. They even don't have watermark. Since the demise of CamScanner, have recommended Notebloc to friends and family, and all were satisfied with it.

How many of the people here wrote 4 page answers to the last few questions given in GS 3 in Mains 2020 (and 2019 for that matter)?

Were you able to complete the paper satisfactorily?

There were 4 page answers in 2019 GS-3? :o

In 2020, only last 2 questions had 4 pages, right?

For the 19th question I did not realize that there were 4 pages before already concluding on the 3rd page. But still extended on similar lines to cover next half page. 

For the 20th, used first page to draw 2 maps, hence utilized the complete space.

3 pages only. Striked out the 4th when I realised there was an extra.

Wrote the four pages. Can't remember what I wrote at all though. 

Finished the paper but NCAP, potential GDP, JSA answers were unsatisfactory.

I did exactly the same as@Caesar , struck out those pages. Wrote the extra pages in 2019 and that led to some piss poor Q. 9, 10 quality as I attempted 15 markers first in 2019.

I too wrote only 3 pages. Probably 2.75. I didn't strike out the 4th page though.
