I mentioned what each color means based on general idea that red being severe and green being mild

Also mentioned that warning for place depends how close it lies to the trajectory of cyclone etc

Finally drew a map showing cyclone prone areas. 

At th end mentioned that Color coding reaches wider populace easily 

I just made these points based on vague idea abt the topic but I did rush up at the social question at end 

Net gains matter at end ,so let's not lose hope

rather than worrying about the performance of others in vague questions, its better if you analyze essay + optional + ethics. gs 123 kisika saga nai h

@Darvey78 like@Capedcrusader1 said, few questions are out of competetion...but i wrote some tangential stuff...like expectations of donor agencies to open up the market, environmental degradation, decreased labour protection etc etc...did not exactly meet the demand of the question i think..but might get some marks i think

Brother, kya ap jaante ho main sabse jyada frustrated Kab Tha?? 

When I failed my first mains.. 

Couldn't sleep for 3-4daya after the result... 

This is the chillest mains I have appeared since I first appeared in 2016.

Reason??

Realisation that the nature of exam is such that either you are lucky, or you are born with talents that fits upsc criteria.. 

And most importantly I find money and peace in endeavours away from UPSC

My intention is  in no way to undermine the achievement of those who clear this exam. But to make newbies aware of the realities of this exam, so that the stress caused due this exam is powered, and no one wastes 5-6 years of their youthful year. 

Frustration Hota to UPSC jaakar todfod karta. Yaha keyboard warrior nahi Banta..

Is there any group for interview preparation? Particularly, where those who have given mains can interact through video call and schedule each others mock interviews?

please send link if someone knows..

else, we can form such a group of 4-5 dedicated and competent aspirants

have you formed a group?
