[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.

@jagteshwar_sohal25614 The keys are saying wrong coz the just do a general google search and then they see bengal word and the language bengali they conclude he meant bengal.

in history everything depends on the verbatim, what historians think about something. This is directly lifted from Ishita dube and she clearly explains this whole context in 2 pages.

I agree with you, on this. Actually given upsc picks questions from a book or source and generally sticks with the interpretation of that source, I am nudged to believe it will be 1n2 only. Though am not entirely convinced on what he meant by desh.

I know you won't agree,but I still stick to my 103-104 stance...
I never said more than 105
And if I get 4/5 of these correct...I am close to 112..
It's just that everyone I open the forum,there's some new evidence against the options I marked...
It's my 3rd attempt and prolly last 
Please don't be condescending in Ur reply

@Aurang_mirasudar bhai if ur answers are going to be right, in that case i would be in, n  wud be really  thankful to u . My reasoning was centred around the same logic wch u had provided. Thanx fr the efforts though.lets wait for the results. If am going  in then its fr sure that the research wch u had done was in sync with upsc's paper setter. Else destiny had somethin else in mind.

People are saying the wording is of a generalist nature. Last time upsc did one with rules followed are same as loksabha , it went with general option while coachings did a lot of hair splitting on obscure rules. So some coaching centres are just saying that it was based on art 164(4).

Most of the coaching institutes have gone haywire when it comes to passages in CSAT. Even for the most obvious ones they've given absurd answers. :/
