>> No syllabus in place for new UPSC exam
Four months after Prime Minister Manmohan Singh approved the Union Public Service Commission's proposal to overhaul the Civil Services Examination from 2011, the government is yet to finalise details of the new examination. The PM’s approval came nearly a decade after the YK Alagh panel on examination reforms submitted its report.
The preliminary examination consists of two papers: The first on general studies that is common to all, while for the second, candidates choose a subject from a list of 23 subjects.
The UPSC intends to replace the second with an aptitude test to grade the cognitive skills of aspirants.

>> Civil Services Exams heading for crucial changes - UPSC Head
Chairman of the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC), Prof. D.P. Agrawal has said that there is an urgent need for important changes in the method of recruitment to the higher Civil Services.
In his address during the inaugural UPSC Foundation Day Lecture Series, Prof. Agrawal said that UPSC has recommended to the Government that a Civil Services Aptitude Test replace the existing Civil Services (Preliminary) Examination.
As per the Commission's recommendation, there will be two objective type papers common to all candidates.
The emphasis will be on testing the aptitude of the candidate for the demanding life in the civil service as well as on the ethical and moral dimensions of decision making.
The Chairman said that the proposed scheme will have the advantages of testing a candidate's decision making skills and aptitude for civil services, and providing a level playing field and equity, since all candidates will have to attempt common papers.
Agrawal also felt that a reduction in the number of attempts allowed at the Civil Services Examination to the candidates from rural background is called for.
The Chairman further said that there is a need to ensure that the performance of officers selected through the Civil Services Exam is tracked, particularly during the initial, formative years.
"The Commission may also be kept apprised of the feedback so that this can be factored into the selection process for future entrants. UPSC receives over a million applications for all the 14 regular examinations and other recruitment it conducts every year. The Commission also is contemplating moving to examination through computers, once this step is approved by the Government", he added.
Agrawal also detailed the activities of the UPSC which have gone up substantially ever since the Commission was setup 83 years ago.
The UPSC Foundation Day Lecture Series on Governance got underway with a speech by President of India, Pratibha Patil. The theme for the inaugural lecture was 'Governance and Public Service'.
In her address, the President said that public service needs to meet the challenges of the 21st century as there is a repositioning of the whole concept of good governance.
Advocating a people-centric administration with local institutions playing a lead role, she emphasized cooperation and coordination among all levels of administration.
Patil said that public servants must have firm moorings to moral values and principles and exhorted them to introspect on how they can reflect these values in their functioning. She emphasized on building a caring administration.
The Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, Prithviraj Chavan, in his address said, civil service must reinvent itself to meet the public expectation in the changing times.
"It should strive to become more professional by acquiring newer skills and a mindset of accepting change. The Government and UPSC are in a dialogue on reforms in several areas of public service and this should result in far-reaching reforms", he said.

>> Faesal becomes first Kashmiri to top UPSC examinations
Shah Faesal
SRINAGAR: It was a battle against all odds for 26-year-old Shah Faesal after his father was killed by militants in 2001, but this student of medicine overcame the trauma to become the first Kashmiri to top the Civil Service examinations.
Celebrations erupted in his native Sogam in the Lolab valley as the news reached the residents. Faesal's mother Mubeena, a school teacher, ensured that her children were able to continue their education after their father Ghulam Rasool Shah, also a teacher, was killed by militants in Kupwara in 2001.
Faesal, an MBBS degree-holder who topped the prestigious examination in his maiden attempt, said it was a dream come true and a proud moment for his family. “My father was a great inspiration. He was a great teacher. I gathered courage, and ultimately it is the efforts I put in that paid results,” Faesal, who is in Delhi, told PTI.
His brother Shahnawaz Shah is also a doctor. Faesal studied in the high school at Sogam and the Bisco Higher Secondary School, Srinagar. He got his medical degree from the Government Medical College, Srinagar.
Faesal topped the list of 875 candidates, who qualified in the Civil Service Examinations, 2009. — PTI

UPSC increases Civil services intake
Home minister P Chidambaram had in November last year announced the decision to increase the annual batch size of IPS officers from 130 to 150.
THE UNION Public Service Commission (UPSC) has substantially increased the total intake into the Civil Services from 580 in 2009 to 965 in 2010 -- an increase of 385 seats.
The decision to increase the intake of IPS officers was taken on the basis of the recommendation of a one-man committee headed by retired IPS officer Kamal Kumar. The report, submitted on October 15 last year, confirmed the home ministry's earlier concerns that there was grave neglect in determining the number of candidates to be recruited to IPS in the CSE during the four-year period 1999-2002.
According to a recent UPSC release, the decision on increased intake was announced by Commission through its notification for the Civil services examination-2010. In fact, home minister P Chidambaram had in November last year announced the decision to increase the annual batch size of IPS officers from 130 to 150 even the batch of 2009 - which has just taken its CSE (Main) - will see a few more IPS officers when the final result is announced sometime in May. In 2008, UPSC had taken 791 candidates, including 120 in IAS, 26 in IFS and 130 in IPS.
Since the UPSC notification clearly says that the number of vacancies is liable to alteration. The total vacancies (965) to be filled through the 2010 Civil Services Examination (CSE) will be meant for all 24 services, including IAS, IFS, IPS, IRS and others, the police services will see a major jump in intake. The police services include IPS and Delhi, Andaman and Nicobar, and Puducherry services.

UPSC wants babus with aptitude, not attitude
New Delhi: The babus are known for their attitude, but the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) now wants a bureaucracy with aptitude. And to bring this change, the UPSC has recommended an overhaul in the format of the civil services examination.
Among the changes proposed to the government are replacing the preliminaries with an aptitude test comprisingtwo common papers and reducing the number of attempts allowed to a candidate.
The commission has also proposed that the promotion of officers from state services to the all-India level should not be based solely on the assessment of annual confidential reports, but should also involve a competitive examination and an interview.
The civil services examination is an all-India level screening to recruit officers for administrative (IAS), police (IPS), foreign (IFS) and allied services. The commission receives over 10 lakh applications for 14 regular examinations and other recruitment tests it conducts every year. Of these, about 5,000 officers are selected after a rigorous process of screening, testing and personal interviews.
The UPSC believes fewer attempts will remove the premium on cramming, or learning by rote. At present, the maximum number of attempts allowed to a general candidate is four. While the aspirants from other backward classes are allowed seven attempts, there is no such restriction for SC/ST aspirants.
The age limit is 21-30 years, with graduation as the minimum qualification required.
As of now, the preliminary examination has two papers -- general studies carrying 150 marks and an optional paper (selected from a list of 23 subjects) carrying 300 marks.
The UPSC wants to replace this pattern with an aptitude test having two objective-type papers common to all candidates. In its recommendations sent to the ministry of personnel, public grievances and pensions, the UPSC has said that these changes will not only test candidates' decision-making skills and aptitude for civil services, but also provide a level-playing field through common papers.
"The emphasis will be on testing the aptitude of the candidate for the demanding life in the civil service as well as on the ethical and moral dimensions of decision-making," said UPSC chairman DP Agrawal.
On the proposed three-tier process for promoting officers from the state to the national level, he said it would have the "salutary effect of encouraging competition and privileging merit". "Such a system could, in time, be extended to promotions within the central services as well," Agrawal said. The commission is also contemplating holding the examination on computers.
The structure of the civil services main examination is likely to remain unchanged for the time being. There is also no move to lower the age limit keeping in mind the interests of rural candidates, many of whom complete their graduation later than their urban counterparts.
Wajahat Habibullah, former chief information commissioner and also an ex-director of the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration, called the USPC's recommendations "very good". "The civil services examination should be made simpler to bring out the abilities of the candidates rather than giving higher importance to rote learning," he said.

Let’s hold aptitude test in place of civil services prelims, says UPSC chief
The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has recommended to the government that the civil services exam process be changed to replace the preliminary examination with an aptitude test common to all applicants.
The justification for introducing two objective type tests instead of the preliminary examination, the subject of which is selected by the candidate, is to provide a level playing field to applicants and test their decision-making skills.
“Public service may be rightly described as a ‘calling’ rather than merely as a profession or a career. The structure and process of governance are crucially affected by the nature and quality of public officials... While sufficient guarantees of livelihood and career satisfaction need to be built in so as to attract men and women of ability and character to public services, there is simultaneously a need to ensure that ‘aptitude for service’ is also identified among the necessary qualifications for entry,” UPSC chairman D P Agrawal said at the inaugural UPSC Foundation Day lecture series here.

Reveal cut-off marks in civil service prelims, HC to UPSC
The Delhi High Court today directed the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) to make public the cut-off marks obtained by candidates in preliminary test of the civil services examination.
"We observed that the documents submitted by UPSC in a sealed cover, are not of such nature that can be characterised as secret, or of a type the disclosure of which would not be in public interest," observed a Division Bench of Chief Justice A P Shah and Justice S Muralidhar in a judgement.
Upholding the April 17, 2007 order passed by a single judge favouring the CIC's decision which had held that disclosure of information pertaining to cut-off marks would not harm the interest of UPSC or any third party, the Bench dismissed a petition filed by the Commission against the single judge's order.
The Bench also dismissed the apprehension of UPSC that by disclosing the working of the scaling methodology for preliminary examination, merit can get compromised and candidates with less merit would be selected and said "...We are of the view that the apprehension of UPSC is not well founded".

UPSC to conduct special exams for IPS
The UPSC will soon be holding special examinations for young officers in Central Police Organisations (CPOs), Central Paramilitary Forces (CPFs) and state police forces to induct them into the elite Indian Police Service (IPS). The Union home ministry, which was working on a proposal to plug the acute shortfall of IPS officers in the country, has firmed up its scheme and is holding consultations with the UPSC to implement the move.
Two attempts to crack the IPS examination will be given to officers recruited as deputy superintendents of police in the states and as assistant commandants in the five CPOs, according to the scheme. Such examinations will be held once a year for at least seven years with the aim of getting nearly 70 IPS officers each year. The officers who make it will be kept on probation for one year. Their service in the CPOs or state police forces will be terminated only when they are confirmed in the IPS.
The eligibility criteria to sit for the examination demands that the police officer should not be more than 35 years of age and should have at least five years of continuous service experience. “Since it will be a competitive examination, the selection will be according to merit. The fixing of seniority and year of allotment to the IPS will be based on their experience,” a government official said. The CPOs and CPFs covered under the scheme are the CRPF, BSF, ITBP, CISF and the SSB.
Aiming to start the “limited competitive examination” next year, the government has got down to finalising the examination syllabus and nature of training for the officers taken into the IPS. An expert committee comprising officials of the National Police Academy, Bureau of Police Research and Development, police officers working in state forces, Central paramilitary forces and experts will look into the issue of training.
The Kamal Kumar Committee, tasked to draw up an IPS recruitment plan (2009-2020), has suggested a three- to six-month training course for all such officers inducted into the IPS under the scheme. The committee also suggested that the syllabus for the exam centre around conceptual and practical aspects of policing and internal security. The committee said an added advantage of the scheme is that it would open a fast-track channel for bright officers in the state police forces, CPFs and CPOs to get into the IPS

>> SUCCESS TILISM FOR UPSC EXAM
SUCCESS TILISM FOR UPSC EXAM
1. Always remember that there is simple difference between one who qualifies and one who does not qualify. This simple difference is created by the aspirants themselves. Both the qualified and non qualified students are really labourious and even those candidates who have not qualified, certain time are more labourious than the qualified candidates. Then question arises why after being so labourious one is unable to qualify this exam. The answer lies in the mode of preparation. The non qualified candidates labour really hard because he is not the directed one. He goes here and there and collects information in a wayward manner for that reason he invest/waste a lot of energy, time and finances in this way, for which he get no returns. He labours hard really because he has not been given a proper direction and is not enlightened as far the UPSC examination and its nature is concern. Because of this his preparation is not targeted one. On the other hand, the directed aspirants who has identified the nature and purpose of the UPSC examination goes to hit the target straight forward without going wayward and wasting his energies, time and finances. Remember your age (which decides your enthusiasm) and the attempts in UPSC (which decides the pressure on your mind) and your financial health (which decides your career) are very crucial considerations for this exam if you are loosing them at your prime age then there can be no fill-gap mechanism left for you. So the crux is that you make yourself directed one with a proper guidance mechanism for you at every stage of the examination.
2. Proper guidance can be acquired by you if you are able to know the UPSC examination through the study mechanism by your own.
3. You can acquire the proper guidance for you by interacting with those persons who are already in process of preparing for this exam or through the candidates who have cleared prelim or main at least once.
4. Circle of your friends and those with whom you are interacting with are also one of the deciding factors in your success so try to be with those who are knowledgeable enough to contribute to your knowledge which can help you in enhancing your knowledge base, for the UPSC examination.
5. Entertain yourself with all means, see movies, roam the parks, enjoy the entertaining talks with your friends but remember that from everywhere you have to come out with something which contributes to the overall growth of your personality.
6. As far the study is concern study only few basic books and study materials, which has been selected section and topic wise and has been mentioned in the Kohinoor guidelines which has been distributed among you through Project Kohinoor.
7. Classify previous year’s questions topic wise and try to understand their nature, background, source and their importance so that the UPSC’s perspective of selecting the facts could be clear to you. This step is very necessary for your success in the preliminary examination.
8. Once you are able to identify the nature and the background of the questions asked in the last year’s exams, you can easily identify which information is important for the exam and can collect them thereof in your note book.
9. You can make your own collection of facts in registers so that it would be easy for you to refer them easily whenever you required.
10. There is a lot of confusion regarding how much time an aspirant has to give for the study. Here the simple answer from Kohinoor fraternity would be that the study time should be decided by the two factors; one is that it has to depend on the physical capacity of the candidates, second is that it has to be decided by the mental capability of the candidate also. So the time management can vary from person to person but the prime concern should always have to be to know how to cover the vast syllabus at our disposal. One person can study three hours to mug up 100 informations, for others it may take six hours. So in this field your mental and physical capacities have prime importance in deciding the time than to copy other persons.
11. Always be attached to the ground realities and be down to earth person. Be polite to others. And always guide the Youngers who are coming to you to get certain information regarding you and UPSC.
12. Always try to attach or incorporate positive things to your personality which will help you in the UPSC interview and will also help you to be positively charged for the UPSC examination.
13. Read the interviews of the toppers of the Civil Services Examination. The reading and the information given over there by the topper will energize you and will give you the idea that the students who had qualified the Civil Services Examination are just like you but had labour hard during their attempt and on that basis they have finally been selected.
14. Try to identify certain things which are common within you and the toppers. And through the prism of proper comparision try to assess and evaluate yourself in the field of the UPSC.
15. always remember the mantra of success i.e. “harder you work luckier you become”, so the key to the success in the UPSC examination is nothing but the labour you are going to put in this field but you also need to keep in mind that labour only is not the last word in the field of success, proper guidance and direction are as much needed as the all important labour from your side. So make a proper balance of all thing to command a winning edge for UPSC.
1. Always remember that there is simple difference between one who qualifies and one who does not qualify. This simple difference is created by the aspirants themselves. Both the qualified and non qualified students are really labourious and even those candidates who have not qualified, certain time are more labourious than the qualified candidates. Then question arises why after being so labourious one is unable to qualify this exam. The answer lies in the mode of preparation. The non qualified candidates labour really hard because he is not the directed one. He goes here and there and collects information in a wayward manner for that reason he invest/waste a lot of energy, time and finances in this way, for which he get no returns. He labours hard really because he has not been given a proper direction and is not enlightened as far the UPSC examination and its nature is concern. Because of this his preparation is not targeted one. On the other hand, the directed aspirants who has identified the nature and purpose of the UPSC examination goes to hit the target straight forward without going wayward and wasting his energies, time and finances. Remember your age (which decides your enthusiasm) and the attempts in UPSC (which decides the pressure on your mind) and your financial health (which decides your career) are very crucial considerations for this exam if you are loosing them at your prime age then there can be no fill-gap mechanism left for you. So the crux is that you make yourself directed one with a proper guidance mechanism for you at every stage of the examination.
2. Proper guidance can be acquired by you if you are able to know the UPSC examination through the study mechanism by your own.
3. You can acquire the proper guidance for you by interacting with those persons who are already in process of preparing for this exam or through the candidates who have cleared prelim or main at least once.
4. Circle of your friends and those with whom you are interacting with are also one of the deciding factors in your success so try to be with those who are knowledgeable enough to contribute to your knowledge which can help you in enhancing your knowledge base, for the UPSC examination.
5. Entertain yourself with all means, see movies, roam the parks, enjoy the entertaining talks with your friends but remember that from everywhere you have to come out with something which contributes to the overall growth of your personality.
6. As far the study is concern study only few basic books and study materials, which has been selected section and topic wise and has been mentioned in the Kohinoor guidelines which has been distributed among you through Project Kohinoor.
7. Classify previous year’s questions topic wise and try to understand their nature, background, source and their importance so that the UPSC’s perspective of selecting the facts could be clear to you. This step is very necessary for your success in the preliminary examination.
8. Once you are able to identify the nature and the background of the questions asked in the last year’s exams, you can easily identify which information is important for the exam and can collect them thereof in your note book.
9. You can make your own collection of facts in registers so that it would be easy for you to refer them easily whenever you required.
10. There is a lot of confusion regarding how much time an aspirant has to give for the study. Here the simple answer from Kohinoor fraternity would be that the study time should be decided by the two factors; one is that it has to depend on the physical capacity of the candidates, second is that it has to be decided by the mental capability of the candidate also. So the time management can vary from person to person but the prime concern should always have to be to know how to cover the vast syllabus at our disposal. One person can study three hours to mug up 100 informations, for others it may take six hours. So in this field your mental and physical capacities have prime importance in deciding the time than to copy other persons.
11. Always be attached to the ground realities and be down to earth person. Be polite to others. And always guide the Youngers who are coming to you to get certain information regarding you and UPSC.
12. Always try to attach or incorporate positive things to your personality which will help you in the UPSC interview and will also help you to be positively charged for the UPSC examination.
13. Read the interviews of the toppers of the Civil Services Examination. The reading and the information given over there by the topper will energize you and will give you the idea that the students who had qualified the Civil Services Examination are just like you but had labour hard during their attempt and on that basis they have finally been selected.
14. Try to identify certain things which are common within you and the toppers. And through the prism of proper comparision try to assess and evaluate yourself in the field of the UPSC.
15. always remember the mantra of success i.e. “harder you work luckier you become”, so the key to the success in the UPSC examination is nothing but the labour you are going to put in this field but you also need to keep in mind that labour only is not the last word in the field of success, proper guidance and direction are as much needed as the all important labour from your side. So make a proper balance of all thing to command a winning edge for UPSC.
>>SUCCESS TILISM FOR THE UPSC PRELIMINARY EXAM
SUCCESS TILISM FOR THE UPSC PRELIMINARY EXAM
SUCCESS IN THE UPSC EXAM, HAS TO BE BASED ON THREE PILLARS OF
MOTIVATION
DEDICATION
DETERMINATION
AND
DIRECTION
NOURISHED BY THE PERSONAL STRATEGY BUILT UPON YOUR OWN MENTAL AND PHYSICAL CAPABILITIES
STEPS TOWARDS PRELIMINARY TEST
1. MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY READY TO TAKE THE TASK OF PREPRATION SERIOUSLY.
2. GO THROUGH THE SYLLABUS OF THE OPTIONAL SUBJECT YOU HAVE OPTED FOR THE PRELIMINARY TEST.
3. COLLECT THE BASIC INFORMATION OF THE PRELIMINARY TEST THROUGH THE MAGAZINES AND SENIOR ASPIRANTS WHO HAVE QUALIFIED IT.
4. AFTER GATHERING BASIC INFORMATION FOR THE TEST AND PREPARATION, MAKE YOUR OWN STRATEGY TO TACKLE TWIN HURDLES OF THE PREPARATION AND THE TEST. STRATEGY SHOULD BE YOUR OWN BASED UPON YOUR OWN MENTAL AND PHYSICAL CABABILITIES.
5. AFTER GOING THROUGH THE ABOVE MENTIONED FOUR STEPS, SIT DOWN ALONG WITH THE SYUDY TABLE, CONSOLIDATING YOUR COMMAND OVER OPTIONAL SUBJECT WHILE GIVING DEEP ATTENTION TO GENERAL STUDIES ALSO.
SUCCESS WILL SURELY COME IF YOU ARE
PROPERLY GUIDED ONE
SUCCESS ALWAYS COMES AFTER PAIN.
LUCK MUST PLAY THE CRUCIAL ROLE.
BUT ALWAYS HAVE IN MIND THAT
“HARDER YOU WORK LUCKIER YOU BECOME”
In the Preliminary examination all the optional papers have their own intricacies related to the nature and preparation. Their respective qualifying marks each year also vary and they have their own plus and minus points. So before a student starts preparation for this examination he has to have all these information clear in his mind. Identification of nature of all the steps and stages of UPSC examination is the first criteria for qualifying the Civil Services Examination. If an aspirant is aware about the nature of the UPSC examination, and is able to know and identify the study materials to be referred for this examination i.e. for prelim and main exams certainly he will be the achiever of the ultimate goal targeted by almost 3 lakhs of Indian each year.So the need is to be the directed energy than to be the misguided mind. Remember one thing that the failed aspirant is always more labourious than those students who qualify this exam. He has put more labour because he is not the directed energy because of that he went to labour hard in all directions most of the time wasting all his energies, while the successful candidates has the proper direction and target before him and on that basis he positively narrow down his area of study and without wasting his energies, time and finances he just went to hit the ultimate target, thus he get the result by investing less labour than those who failed in this exam. So the need is to save the energies, time and finance in the most positive result oriented manner and the best way in this regard is to be the directed energy under the guidance of those who are genuinely interested in providing proper direction and guidance to the students/aspirants.
