For all those who think that UPSC should move to Computer-based Tests for Prelims because its more efficient etc.
See what is happening in the SSC. They are struggling to manage the huge load, centres, processes and exam integrity.
I am sure their system will learn and improve incrementally. But in the process, some candidates tend to suffer.
I hope UPSC is in wait and watch mode. They should think about it only when there is enough experience and learning through errors by some other exam bodies.

What a powerful sentiment.

Anil Swarup sir (Retd. IAS) is from the 1981 batch, UP cadre. He’s had an illustrious career, serving as Coal Secretary and later in the Education Department. Not every IAS gets to be a Secretary — it’s the highest post a civil servant can hold in a ministry.
After retirement, he’s authored books offering deep insights into the ethical dimensions of a civil servant’s life. One of them is aimed especially at GS4 aspirants.
On the 12th August morning (10 AM) he’s coming to LevelUp IAS to personally guide students on how to approach the Civil Services. There’s been a lot of debate lately — is it worth spending years on multiple attempts? Has the IAS lost some of its sheen? What exactly is the role of a civil servant in society and in government?
If you can spare the time, I’d strongly recommend attending this session on the morning of the 12th. It promises to be extremely insightful. Seats are limited — only about 60 — so registration is mandatory:

Stand up Comedy doesn't always have to be about body, shame, youth, marriage, love, sex, and cuss words.
She has been able to bring back healthy comedy. And also been able to add some message. Without loosing the comic part anywhere along the way.
GN Devy has termed India as a linguistic civilization. It is indeed.
Enjoy these 8 mins.

This is the first of ( hopefully) a series of episodes from my first Stand up show So Mini Things. I am thrilled this begins with a wish for India. I have performed this show in over 10 countries and 45 cities across India, Middle East, UK, Europe, Australia…

At LevelUp IAS, today we had a great bhet with Anil Swarup sir. He is a 1981 batch IAS of UP cadre.
He had a great tenure as Secretary with two prime ministers: Manmohan Singh and then Modi.
After retirement, he has written 4 books including one on ethical dilemma of civil servants. His 5th book is coming the day after tomorrow, its on How to Make it Happen.
We will publish the podcast on YT soon. It was highly relevant to the aspirants. Stay tuned.

It seems that NCERT has formed some committee to study this matter. Various evidences regarding the Maratha map will be discussed by the experts to arrive at some consensus.
As the things are evolving rapidly, I am keeping this video in abeyance. Any video prepared today will be outdated just in a few days. Lets wait for right time.

Pravin Swamy has come up with a tantalizing hypothesis to explain why Trump and Munir are coming so close and India is now out of favour. Its because America wants to outsource security of Middle East (West Asia) to Pakistan to cut costs and save American lives. And Pakistani military seems interested in this business.
But we should not forget that Indian subcontinent has been a provider of manpower for many centuries now.
Indentured labour to build railways in Africa, plantation in Fiji, soldiers to die in the two World Wars, cheap labour in Gulf countries today, doctors in Europe, coders in Silicon valley, Farmers in Italy, drivers in Canada, and nurses in Japan.
If Trump now wants to use expendable Paki soldiers to die in the West Asia while he saves America lives, its nothing new. That is how the world has used Indian subcontinent. That has been the biggest export item.
Always.

Trump’s love affair with Asim Munir is driven by his plans to rebuild the Middle East security
From the end of the Second World War, Persian Gulf oil has been protected by an expensive network of American bases—and now, Donald Trump wants regional powers like Saudi Arabia to take over the costs and commitment. That means reviving a decades-old alliance…

Main examination is around the corner. This is not the time to surrender. This is not the time to stop. Just persevere.
And, on the other side, you will wonder at yourself with amazement.

Azadi slogan for dogs?
This is a clip of some upsc aspirants protesting the Supreme Court decision to make Delhi streets safe for humans.
I personally think that human life is more important. We regularly read in news that a lot of children are mauled by dogs, nighttime walk in cities is impossible and elderly are carrying sticks while walking on streets. We could definitely debate what to do with stray dogs as long as streets are safe for humans first.
Meanwhile, some students are taking to protest in ORN which is their democratic and legitimate right. It is totally fine. I also understand that only a handful of students are writing Mains exam which is just around the corner. While, for most of the aspirants, Prelims 2026 is faraway and thus they have some time to spare also. Being public spirited person is a good civic value to have.
But in this video, I notice there were a lot of Azadi slogans in this protest. This thing I dont understand. How is it relevant?

To All stray dog lovers,
Don't allow the outsiders to hijack your protest. Your protest is about dogs. Its against Supreme Court decision.
Its not a party politics. Its not about any ideology.
Don't allow outsiders to hijack the protest and redirect your energy towards their political interests.
It happened last year. After the unfortunate death of some aspirants. Outsiders came with political motivation and tried to redirect the whole protest.
They are coming again. If they succeed then it will become easier to suppress the whole thing.
I do not agree with you on this issue of Dogs, but I really wish you all the best. Keep the agenda focussed.
Safe streets,
Nikhil
