Har koi bc krne me Laga hai.....Apne aap Ko justify krne ki Maine sahi likha hai ya nhi.
Bhai logo...kisi Ko nhi pta kisne kaisa likha hai.
Aur Jo log yahan bol rhe hai ki Maine ye example diya ...maine aise likha etc
Don't worry....kisi ek ya 2 question se decide nhi hoga.
Even if one has written average and completed paer ....wo mains me clear hoga.
My experience of 2017 was....kuch answer excellent likh dene se selection nhi hota hai.
Mera friend jisne just answer likhe and paper complete Kiya wo select hua ...achhaa likhne ke chakkar me...2-3 questions miss kr Dena ...is not a good idea.
And last thing....koi nhi Janta ki examiner Ko kya pasand aayega.

@ajit_kdI wrote on north east part with the type of culture jobs being different plus north India having features of village exogamy and caste endogamy plus south having matriarchal society showing women position, also festivals with same nature having different names be it holi in some parts with lathmar holi in some areas. Concluding with need to keep alive pockets as it provides identity to people instead of heterogeneity imposition.

@ajit_kdSame situation bro. Mech paper was a bit different in my opinion, it wasn't tough but it was different. And time management in mech paper was much tougher than in GS papers. Don't worry, I only attempted 360 marks -_- despite being able to solve nearly the whole paper if it was out of the exam hall.

employment- earlier they were restricted to homes, globalization gave opportunities but with rising male incomes women again got restricted to homes
health- reproductive, lifestyle-related
political representation
then the invigilator took the answer booklet from me as time was over. Found this question a bit confusing so attempted in the end...not expecting marks
