Exam-focused preparation
How to Prepare Current Affairs for UPSC and State PCS
Current affairs preparation is useful only when daily news is connected with the syllabus. For Prelims, remember the institution, legal provision, location, report, species, scheme or factual distinction. For Mains, examine causes, stakeholders, constitutional values, challenges and a practical way forward.
Use the date calendar for daily revision, the month archive for consolidation and the subject pages before a sectional test. Meghalaya, Jharkhand, Bihar and other state topics are kept under State Current Affairs so that State PCS aspirants can revise them separately.
