@rashiv Would you want to suggest topics for making brief pointers? 

For GS 2- comparing Indian president with American president (since it is election year + comes under comparing constitutions) 


For GS 3- a radical suggestion. Before prelims, there was an initiative where few students got together and compiled notes of 1year of Down to Earth. Willing participant chose 1 month each and they got it done. Maybe we could do that for NITI Aayog 3 year plan 

Presidentialisation of a Parliamentary system has the ills of both Presidential and Parliamentary System. Shashi Tharoor has given some very good views on this.

Please suggest me how to prepare Gs2 (I appeared in mains 2019 and got very less marks-75 , please help me), kindly mention sources also.

1. Practice writing answers

2. Read about issues (pros-cons- way forward)

3. Get a grip on the terminology. Link answers to constitution, constitution's values, SC judgements. 

4. End an answer on a +ve note, with a suggestion as far as possible.

Newspaper, your own notes, any good GS2 compilation (Vision/Forum)

I have tried to answer your question - in a question on domestic violence , should we write pros of domestic violence in the discussion video.


You can ping me / inbox me / call me if you need to discuss that further.
