Importance of Governance section

One area that is often ignored is that of governance. One reason being that there is not enough good material on it. We do not know what to read in it. Other reason being, we think governance is too obvious and does not need a separate preparation. We also believe, that governance is not important for prelims.

But, practically speaking, governance is probably one of the most important section for prelims. Every year, questions worth 90 marks in GS 2, 20 marks in GS 4 and 8-10 questions in prelims can be answered, if one studies Governance section well. Where every 1 marks counts, this total can create a difference between Rank 1 and one not clearing even the prelims.

But why do I remind you of it right now ?

I do so, because very recently, UPSC 2018 AIR 93 Pradeep Singh has come out with a book on governance, titled Governance in India – A Handbook for the Civil Services Examination.

Here’s the link

I have read the book recently, and I found that the book was definitely worth a try. It is written by an aspirant, who is now a topper. Therefore it is written in a very aspirant friendly way. It has questions and solutions of past years prelims and mains questions from the governance section. In addition, it contains interesting segments like Do You Know, Hints and Mnemonic boxes. Plus, it is not just a collection of government policies, as it is in books by other authors on the subject. All this, in my opinion, makes it the best book on governance right now.

So, do give it a a try. And let me know your comments too 🙂

All the best 🙂

  1. Hi
    For 2nd ARC, I just read the gist ( not the summary ) of the 2nd ARC. There is a very good gist by GS Score institute available online. Here’s the link

    Padhne ke baad, I would note down the relevant content in my own notes. This helped to synergise the efforts at 1 single place.
    All the best 🙂
