Official : Post Daily Routine & Self Assessment (Mains 2020)

Dear all, keep up the spirits. I know this might sound cliche and it's easy to give 'gyaan' from the fence. But It all boil downs to 150 words, a pristine 'aviral (अविरल)' mind, and the unaffected believe that this exam is designed for you. I genuinely think that each and everyone of you will clear. Just keep up the heat. Just keep up the heat....

Dear friends

Just wanted to reiterate thatIt's all matter of few more weeks, and few moredense study sessions. Those 'nearing' the finish line can in no time be out of the race, and those who might think are no where in the race, may turn the table upside down, provided if they utilise the fraction of potential they posses, but are unable to utilise mainly because of the fear of the unknown. 

Zyada se zyada kya hoga? Selection nahi hoga. Bus itni si baat?  


None of you writing mains is dumb.
None of you writing mains will 'unsucced' in life.
None of you writing mains will die of hunger, or of joblessness.

Believe me, this exam isdesigned  to test your anxiety, frustration, desperation, mental health, and your character.

And believe me, many of those, who might be not privileged as us, are cracking it every year. The only thing is ki there stories are not floating in the air. How many of selected candidates you know? One? Two? Three? Ten? That's too less to be considered as a sample size. There are hundreds of selection every year, and it is beyond anyone's capability toseethese humble, faceless, toppers, who may not find any place in the glam sham of media frenzied interviews, and those biased topper's talk. Believe me, it is among this lot, the majority of junta lies. And this lot is bahut had tak just like you. 


Writings mains is no menial feat, though it is not the final destination, but you all will appreciate its indeed a confidence booster.Maintain the confidence. Appreciate that ho saqta hai agle saal ye mauka bhi na miley.


I am not an expert. In fact not a prelims expert for that matter. But, do this exercise-write 150 words in the replica of UPSC answer sheet.Saari chinta melt ho jayegi. Yes, it just needs quality 150 words which will fetch you marks. 


With the risk of sounding noob, idealist, first timer, etc (nevertheless) yahi kehnaa hai aap sab se kiho jayega. Sabka exam niklega.

10:00-12:00 Non Fiction

2:30-4:30 Non Fiction

7:30 - 9:30 Winding up that non fiction (hopefully). Can't study anything before finishing it, else guilt factor will haunt me while I actually study.

Meanwhile earlier today- "Chalat musafir moh liyo re..." 🙂


(Though this musafir merely went downstairs, for first time in last few weeks, to get some fresh air, but returned exactly within 3 mins fearing the hell out of people who weren't following covid appropriate behaviour. Have taken a wow that won't step outside my room until situation resumes to normalcy)

@kb1iasin8830  No no, this is not in Delhi. I am based out of western India. At the tip of Western Ghats to be precise :)
