Current affairs are of course the most important aspect in Civil services Exam preparation. We should always analyse Current affairs from the UPSC preliminary exam and the UPSC mains exam perspective.No matter which subject UPSC asks questions from (economics, environment, History or from polity), it makes conscious efforts to link the subject to a current affair topic. It thus becomes an imperative for us to know what the term current affairs really mean from UPSC point of view. You can get a proper understanding through the analysis of the previous year question papers.If we examine the question papers from 2013 onwards till 2019 preliminary exam, almost close to 50-60% of the questions were asked from topics that are of current relevance. The number of questions based on Current Affairs varies from year to year.The logic behind such a shift in the pattern of question papers explains the intent of UPSC and its quest to have brightest minds to govern the country. However, for the quest to be fruitful it would be appropriate from the part of UPSC to examine the candidate’s awareness about the society in which he is living. Static knowledge would prove inefficient for such an analysis. Society is dynamic and is subjected to changes. A Civil Servant should have the skills of a barrister and also that of a diplomat in order to cope with the changing society and also show the cognitive skills to coordinate, mobilize arguments and achieve consensus in regard to the execution of his duty. This analytical nature of the duty demands the UPSC aspirants to have an analytical mind and awareness of the society. #upscexam2020 #iasexam2020 #iastrendingtopics #upsctrendingtopics #iasexam2020currentaffairs #upscexam2020currentaffairs #topicsprelims2020 #topicsmainsexam2020
