[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.


@neyawn sir and others, what is your take?

This is the official Thread for discussion of Prelims Postponement, Please do not create new threads for the same.

and thats the irony..there is no singular reality.  

Indeed. But this is a universalistic notion. From the prism of individualism or communitarianism,there is always a reality. We can contest realities but without getting into a game of labelling and mud sludging. Also NN Taleb has been very consistent with his thoughts and I agree- It the most intolerant who wins the argument in the game of establishing narratives.

On a serious note, you should read Antifragile as well. It's a lovely book.

Around this time last year, I screwed up Prelims 2019 and was waiting for UPSC to declare 2020 Calendar !

Already been a year ! Still waiting for UPSC to declare 2020 calendar. Irony, isn’t it ?😄

"Try to imagine a life without timekeeping. You probably can’t. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie. Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays. an alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures. A fear of time running out."

Is this from some book? Its so well written. :)

@Sadhika yes! I just saw and thats really nice of you to have aplogized for what you said. The whole issue was that!, it wasnt a community specific jibe as you made it ( i have no problem with gaumutra or whatsoever, ) but  Not every hindu associates himself with gaumutra ! And blatantly tagging him as an anti hindu was wrong which i pointed out . If you found it offensive you could have said it directly without bringing the religious factor. I would have supported you or anyone else if a particular remark did hurt their religious sentiments . I am no authority to decide whats offensive , whats not... its just goes by common sense and i think thats the very reason you aplogised having realised , few things you said were not meant to be said.

As for cbse exams, earlier cbse had selected 3000 centres to conduct these exams now the exams will be conducted in 15000 centres with a view to practice social distancing.
