@abhishek_pi have never used stories in my essays.i start with some real data or examples.
In health and education i started with backwardness in both as legacy given by the british and how govt policies were not quite helpful to develop both
In individual good i started with evolution proceeding to environmental determinism and how individual focusses on self gud rather than society
Covered aspects like pollution, dictatorship, Nazis, modern society and deteriorating social ties
Then moved to results if individual gud overtakes society's gud like arab spring and civil unrest.
Quoted indian philosophy of sarve bhavantu sukhin to be the aim
Last year got 132

@TheHobbitthe examiners check a lot of copies and highly technical and deviated content can surely make them award less marks

@pra7009055this tym each n every question had something relevant to write unlike past years.swaminathan is also one of them.
Saying that i also left 10 marks each in all gs papers but it was due to lack of time only.

@pra7009055last year i left one 10 marker and one 15marker in each paper and in last ques i could write jus one page.
I got 382 in total
So quality of answers matter.

@vvvikas0078212i agree bro.
I left the ques due to time factor and not due to lack of content
In the end its always beneficial to attempt all ques.

Upsc first time aise fasa hai kisi matter per wrna hamesha upsc k acc hi hota tha sab. Rti case ho ya marks declaration ya kuch b.mayb upsc expect nai kr rha tha k matter is height tk ayega k use result b rokna pdega wrna ye log phle hi kr lete kuch arrangement.
Ya toh ews walo ka issue phle hi end kr dete aur mains mein provisionally allow nai krte per ab agr result dia aur bd mein ews k favour mein gya case toh upsc fas jayegi.
Islye decision k wait hi krna hai upsc ko b aur sath mein hume b.
