How to Grasp the subject...Reply to Miss/Mr Anonymous

Miss/Mr Anonymous: Sir,I am studying for CSE for a..year now.I have BIG problem with GS. You know how it happen. You just don't know how to study ,what to study. Initially..I had problem with polity. I just couldn't grasp the subject. After much search and seeking somebody recommend me to buy Laxmikanth. My problem was solved. Now you know laxmicant is just word to word copy of DDBasu. But I couldn't study for months even when i had basu in hands. Now my BIG problem is economics. PLZ HELP

Manmauji: Hello Miss/Mr Anonymous, thanks for your visit on the blog...Regarding your query, I can understand your problem. The solution of your problem lies in your mind. The first thing you do is start meditation for 30 Mts everyday. You need to be cool and calm in your mind. Don't burden yourself with the thought of preparing for CSE..If you are cool and calm in your mind, you can learn very fast and much more. If you are not able to grasp any thing, you should start reading that stuff very slowly. Devote 5 mts to each paragraph strictly with a watch in front of your eyes. These small techniques can solve your problem. For economics, you should start from NCERT. Clear your basics then purchase UMA Kapila book or any standard Economics book. Later on for updates you can purchase Pratiyogita Darpan Special Economics Bumper issue...Hope your doubts are clear by now..further query is welcome..keep blogging...

An audacious comment by Mr Prasanth

Hello all, I am publishing "as it is" one comment received on the blog written by Mr Prasanth. The views expressed by him are his own and Neutralviews is providing only the platform for wider circulation and mulling over.
"Kudos to Ms. Manju Madhavan, an IRS officer of 1971 batch, for foreseeing the biggest scam in modern India. She resigned as Member (Finance), DoT apparently upset over the decisions of the Minister and his IAS chelas. In doing so she displayed an exemplary character. People in the Government know how honest and upright an officer she is. At the outset let us put a big full stop to one of the biggest beliefs in India that the IRS is the most corrupt among civil services. Being a Department dealing with the Government finances the Income Tax Department had to bear such noises quite often. Many wrong aspersions are cast on the Department. Corruption thrives in the Income Tax Department just as the case with other Government Departments. But any taxpayer or a Chartered Accountant or a Tax Practitioner would agree that the corruption is more prevalent at the lower levels and among the promote IRS officers. The directly recruited IRS officers recruited through Civil Services Exam conducted by the UPSC are mostly honest and upright. They are masters at various finance related matters and IRS officers are the only civil servants in the country doing the original work in the Department. This greatly contributes to their understanding of the ground realities and one of the reasons for their high success in any field of work. IRS officers have shown their mettle when on deputation to the Central Secretariat and to PSUs. IRS is the only service which can dislodge the IAS from their positions both by their expertise (talent) and powerful service lobby. The IAS are vary of this fact and are trying their best to suppress IRS officers. It is very apparent from the CVC reports that among civil servants IAS officers are the most corrupt. The number of cases against IRS officers is the least among the civil servants. The number of disciplinary actions recommended by the CVC (incidentally headed by an IAS officer) is proof enough that IRS is not as corrupt as is perceived and IAS is as corrupt as the politicians. Everybody is talking about ‘Spectrum Raja’ but what about the IAS officers ‘Spectrum Pradip Baijal’ – former TRAI Chairman and Disinvestment Secretary, ‘Spectrum Vasudev’ – former Economic Affairs Secretary, ‘Spectrum Ajay Dua’ – former Industrial Policy and Promotion Secretary, ‘Spectrum Seth’ – former TRAI Member, and ‘Spectrum Chandolia’ – former PS to Raja. Almost all corruption cases in the country are because of IAS officers. This is happening because of the continuation of the British legacy. The ICS (IAS was then called so) was formed as an arm of the British to suppress the Nationalist Movement. Post-independence the IAS is being used by the politicians to achieve their narrow ends. It’s time to set the things right.
The IAS should be given a specific area of work. They should not be a jack of all trades but a master of one. All civil services should be given their due. An IRS officer is best suited to be a Revenue Secretary than an IAS, an IFS officer is best suited to be Secretary, Min. of Environment and Forests than an IAS, an IAAS officer is the best suited to be C&AG than an IAS officer, an IRS or IAAS or ICAS is best suited to be a Finance Secretary than an IAS, an ITS officer is best suited to be DGFT and Commerce Secretary than an IAS, an IIS officer is best suited to be I&B Secretary than an IAS officer, an IPS officer is best suited to be a Home Secretary than an IAS officer, Scientists are best suited to be Agriculture Secretary, Culture Secretary, New and Renewable Energy Secretary, Science and Technology Secretary, Water Resources Secretary and an educated sportsman is best suited to be a Sports Secretary. An IRS or IPS officer should be the CVC rather than an IAS officer. But why then IAS officers are heading all these Departments and holding the country to ransom. Come on its time to change all this. Modern world needs specialization and honest officers. Our Hon’ble Prime Minister has been a Finance Secretary without being an IAS officer. He knows how the IAS lobby arm twists the Government. He is the right person to take action and fortunately he is at the helm of affairs and in a position to get it done. One should understand that the politicians don’t have the wherewithal to amass huge amounts of illegal wealth. The logistics are provided by the IAS babus. Long back the Rajamannar Committee has recommended the abolition of IAS. This is nothing to do with the persons but related only to the character of the IAS as a service that breeds corruption, nepotism and self aggrandizement which ultimately leads to the failure of a nation."...keep blogging

i am undergoing training as an irs(c&ce)probationer...cud u plz throw light upon the further division of our batch in mumbai n faridabad?how is the division done?is it done?can it b changed?pls guide...thanks in advance!
Manmauji: Hello Miss/Mr Anonymous, thanks for your visit on the blog and congrats on your entry in to prestigious IRS league...Regarding your query, the division of the batch between Faridabad and Mumbai will be arbitrary....you can visit NACEN website www.nacen.gov.in for further updates on the division of batch...Due to large size, it may be divided in to three e.g. Faridabad, Mumbai and Chennai....further query is welcome...keep blogging..

Regarding optionals...reply to Miss SHRUTI SHARMA

Miss SHRUTI SHARMA : sir,my optionals are philosophy and pali litrature.i have almost completed both optionals.Are these optionals scoring?.........i have heard that taking such optionals may fetch very low marks in interview.
Manmauji: Hello Miss SHRUTI SHARMA, thanks for your visit on the blog and sorry for the delayed reply due to busy schedule...Regarding your query, I know several guys and girls who scored very well in these two optionals and cleared CSE with very good rank as well...So don't worry about it...It is not the optional, it is your knowledge and expertise in the subject which gives you marks...Optionals doesn't play any role in interview..they may ask questions from your optionals but if you know your subject well, you can answer them very nicely...good luck...further query is welcome...keep blogging..

Regarding deputation....Reply to Mr Raghavendra

Mr Raghavendra: Sir,
I came across this blog few days before and really impressed by your guidance for the aspirations.
I'm and IPS aspirant, and my interest is mainly on joining investigating& Intelligence departments like IB and RAW instead of civil police.somewhere i heard that these days there is a direct deputation into organizations like IB,RAW for IPS probationers.Could you give me information on what are the chances of IPS probationers to enter in such depts.
Please give some focus on RAS also.
Thanks,Raghavendra

Manmauji: Hello Mr Raghavendra, thanks for your visit on the blog and kind words about it....Regarding your query, it is good that you have such a dream and desire to serve in intelligence agencies...As far as I know, direct deputation in intelligence is not possible. you need to serve in civil police for some times then you can join them. However, in RAW, it is open recruitment from all the services to serve them directly after your probation is complete but you can not leave RAW once you joined in this system. However, I am not very sure about this fact. further query is welcome...keep blogging..

Manmauji: Hello Mr Arul, thanks for your visit on the blog and kind words about it...Regarding your query, after five years of service, several posts are open for deputation where one can apply in government of India...For this there are of course some guidelines such as clean service record, etc....Deputation is available in all the services....NCB of course is under MOH but central narcotics bureau [CNB] is still under IRS[C&CE] which controls production of opium, trade of drugs and implements NDPS Act hence very powerful and interesting job profile...further query is welcome...keep blogging..

[2]Your age won't be a barrier in your selection as you are just 25 yr..good luck.

Regards,Jayashree

Manmauji: Hello Mr Jayashree, thanks for your visit on the blog...Regarding your query, 2 marker in history can be prepared from NCERT books but since now you don't have time, you can buy 2 marker magazine and just mug the information...regarding notes from news papers, you must make them in short and in point form otherwise it will be bulky...you can have some spiral type note book and write point wise information on same topic...Regarding notes from chronicle, of course you can make notes and even prepare some answers from the topics given in chronicle...for idea about GS current, you can buy last years unsolved q papers of UPSC, and prepare notes accordingly...chronicle used to publish model answers of GS papers, you can make them a guide..Regarding Essay, Wizard magazine usually publish good essay, you can make them as a standard Essay for your practise...further query is welcome..keep blogging..

Regarding promotion...Reply to Miss Aditi Shankar

Miss Aditi Shankar: Sir, I liked you blog very much. I have one query. Can you please throw some light on time taken for promotions in Group A services. I would like to know how much time it takes approximately to move from one level to another e.g. JTS to STS and then to JAG and so on. Thanks in advance.
REgards
Aditi shankar
Manmauji: Hello Miss Aditi Shankar, thanks for your visit on the blog and kind words about it...regarding your query, the promotion time varies on service to service as well on the availability of posts at higher level...However, as per 6th Pay commission, you will be promoted in a higher pay band with in fixed time scale without any change in the job profile..for e.g in IRS[C&CE], officer gets promoted from Asstt Commissioner to Deputy Commissioner in 2 years in general but there are evidences that officer is not promoted to DC but getting DC pay...further query is welcome..keep blogging..

Regarding Trade Service..Reply to Miss Tirumala

Tirumala: Dear Sir,My name figures in the 2008 reserve list. I should get trade service based on my choice in mains form and looking at the availability. Can you throw some light on ITS, specifically about promotions and service conditions as I am not getting any info in this regard on the Internet. Also, do you have any idea as to when the training might start? I am currently well employed, married and will end up doing a lot of juggling if I decide to join. It would help if I know the timeline for joining so that I can plan. Please help if you know something about my questions or if you can provide me some link. I would be grateful. regards
Tirumala

Manmauji: Hello Miss Tirumala, thanks for your visit on the blog and congrats for your success....Regarding your query, the scope of trade service is quite good as you will require to function under ministry of commerce..Since the cadre strength of ITS is very less so you will have good promotional chances...Since the service deals with corporates and trade aspects, you will have enough international exposure having numerous opportunity to travel abroad...Besides, you can join other ministry also on deputation after 5 years of service....But, as you have written that you are well employed, so in terms of salary and perks you may not get enough in ITS...Regarding the joining time, reserve list 2006 candidates are getting joining from 1st Oct..so I hope with in next week you will also get it but it depends on service to service...As you will undergo training in NIFT, New Delhi only so you may undergo training with your juniors in the month of December....further query is welcome...keep blogging..

Reply to Mr Rajeev Parashar

Query: Hi Neutral views,Thanks for the clear guidance you provide. I am a well educated person of 22 years. I have joined my Fathers business of about 40 employees in a junior leadership role. Do you think one can have a more fulfilling career, both for oneself and for the country, in the IAS / IA&AS / IFS / IPS / IRS / IC&CES than as an honest tax paying and hardworking businessman? Kindly reply in a manner that i am able to take a decision and focus resolutely on either my business (which incidentally is of a CHA, transport, etc) OR prepare earnestly for the CSE. Thanks and with very warm regards Rajeev Parashar.
Manmauji: Hello Mr Rajeev Parashar, thanks for your visit on the blog and kind words about it...It is good that you are handling the business...In the present context, being a business man and paying good amount of taxes is very satisfying and nice service to the nation..Being in to civil service is a matter of choice...one can't say that only Civil servant are serving the nation...Every body is required in the service to the nation...Being in corporate , one can go for corporate social responsibility just like TATA or INFOSYS, you can get name,fame and satisfaction...Thus, you can be happy as well as serve the nation being in to corporate..there is no need to switch over to Civil Service...How ever it should be your internal desire which matters most...further query is welcome..keep blogging..

Manmauji's Reply: Hello Mr AK, thanks for your visit on the blog...regarding your query, there are some technical requirement of IPS in relation to eye site, you can go through the details in UPSC gazette. There are of course some candidates who make to IPS above eye site 4 + but it may be slightly more than 4...Any major power e..g. 5 or above shall not be allowed as it will be dangerous to your safety.

Reply to Miss/Mr Anonymous

Comment from Miss/Mr Anonymous: "You are in Group A Service, no body can touch you...." What do you mean by this? Are we appointing people for an Aramdayak career in the Government? In corporates its the reverse. Top executives are always held accountable for performance and it is the equivalents of Group Cs and Group Ds who can not be touched. It is not a healthy mindset to have .... nobody can touch you!! After all as a Public servant drawing salary this mentality reeks of rent seeking.
Manmauji's Reply: Hello Miss/Mr Anonymous, thanks for your visit on the blog and taking pain to write straight from the heart....Regarding your comment, I think it has been mis- conceived by you and taken in wrong context. I fully agree with your views about the accountability of senior executives and specially Group A officers...The quoted phrase was written in the context of a query from a reader of this blog who want to know about IAS scope as he was selected in IRS[IT] and was confused whether he should appear again for the exam to become an IAS. His/her apprehension was that whether he will get the time for the preparation and whether he will be harassed by anybody in the field for preparing for the Civil Service Exam..In this context it was replied that he need not worry about it as no body can harass un- necessarily on this ground and thus this quote was written that 'You are in Group A Service, no body can touch you'...I hope that I am able to make my point clear and politely disagree with your allegation on the particular post....further comments are welcome...keep blogging..

Regarding the FC exemption...Reply to Miss/Mr Anonymous

Hello Miss/Mr Anonymous, thanks for your visit on the blog and congrats for your success in CSE...Regarding your query, I have already written in my previous blogs that you should not worry about it, if you have applied it on DoPT for exemption then just relaxed...your name may not reflect on exemption list on MCRHRD list....prepare well for mains...good luck....further query is welcome...keep blogging.....

Reply to Mr Kamlesh

Hello Mr Kamlesh, thanks for your visit on the blog....Regarding your query, some of the candidates may not be able to clear in 1st medical test thus DoPt must have blocked their allocation... As soon as they will get the clearance from medical board they will be allotted to their respective services....this may be the reason behind the remaining seats in IAS on DoPt website...Regarding the category on the allocation list on DoPT, the reflected category means that whether a particular candidate got any benefit under the reflected category...e.g. if a OBC candidate name reflected as general candidate than it means, he/she got the allocation in general category despite being an OBC candidate....further query is welcome....keep blogging....

Hello Mr Nitin, thanks for your visit on the blog....Congratulations on your grand success in CSE-09....Regarding your query, I had a discussion with a guy in DoPT on this issue, he told that you have to join FC...Still, you can contact to DoPT and some senior officials there regarding this matter....but one thing is sure, if you are finally upgraded to IFS in between, you will not be allowed to write CSE mains by UPSC and even if you appeared, your result will not be declared by UPSC...It has happened earlier also....further query is welcome..keep blogging..

Regarding FC exemption...Reply to All

Hello All successful candidates of CSE-2009...Congrats for the grand success in CSE and thanks for your visit on the blog...I am getting numerous mails regarding FC...The problems are numerous..I have classified them in few categories and replying the same:
[1] For those who want to join FC but not received any communication from DoPT: No need to worry about it...You can check out your name on DoPt website and just join the allotted academy with descriptive rolls filled. Even if you didn't receive descriptive rolls from the respective academy, you can download them from the respective academy website..If website download is not working you can even join the academy without them as you will get these rolls in the academy. So, no problem at all..just book your seat and join the big fun waiting you.
[2] For those who want to take exemption from FC:
You can apply for the exemption online on the DoPT website mentioning your roll no of CSE-2010..This will be more than enough...If still, your soul doesn't get satisfaction then you can write a simple letter to DoPT mentioning your roll no of CSE-2010 and intention to take exemption from FC...you need not send any application to the respective academy regarding FC exemption...It may take some time for DoPT to update your name in the FC exemption list..But you should not worry about it and focus on your mains preparation. You should not go for a drive to check whether you are exempted from FC or not..immediate acknowledgement may not be given.
[3] Regarding letter from Parent department:
The letter from your respective service parent department will be sent in the month of November/December only after final updation of the services by DoPT...till that time you all are under the control of DoPT...after the final allocation of services [upgradation of provisionally allocation of services], your file will move to your respective departments and then you will get a formal letter from the training academy and appointment letter from your respective ministry...so have some patience and enjoy the time.
You should remember one thing that now you have been selected by UPSC and approved by DoPT...you will be taken care by them now onwards...So, just enjoy and focus on FC or mains preparation...good luck.

Hello Mr Ajay Chikara, thanks for your visit on the blog and kind words about it...Sorry for the delayed reply...Congratulations on your success in CSE....Regarding your query, I will reply one by one:
[1] The temporary service allocation means your service can be updated to your higher preferences in the month of December. It doesn't have any relation with your wrong category status in your UPSC mains form. So be relaxed about it.
[2] You can check your service allocation on DoPT website..If OBC is mentioned against your name and service allocation, then you got the benefit otherwise not.
[3] You can't change your category status in between the process of exam or service allocation.
[4] You can view the questions put by blog readers in the left side column of the blog where recent comments are coming.

Regarding property returns....Reply to Miss/Mr Anonymous

Hello Miss/Mr Anonymous, thanks for your visit on the blog....Regarding your query...Movable property as mentioned in the form means jewellery, cash balance,etc and immovable property means land,house,etc....The intention behind such declaration before joining the service is to keep track on your personal wealth after joining service....You need to declare your movable and immovable assets every year to the department which you are going to join....Government think that by such declaration, they can curb corruption as you have to declare your source of income if you add any new assets in your name...If you will not be able to explain the source you may fall in to trouble...Regarding veracity of the declaration, as such in the beginning there will not be any fact finding, but you can't negate such verification in case of exponential declaration of assets owing to your socio-economic background...you may be kept under watch if your declaration are exceptionally unique...thus be careful and relax also as in the beginning of the service, there is no tension on this point but after joining service you will have to be a bit careful...further query is welcome...keep blogging..

Reply to Mr Don Anon

Hello Mr Don Anon, thanks for your visit on the blog....Regarding your query, I didn't come across any person so far who faced any problem regarding this matter...It is better that you just intimate your organisation about appearing in CSE exam...because, if your dept later on come to know about it and if they send report or fax to UPSC than you may face some problem as an Group A officer because providing wrong information is a crime to Group A officer under conduct rules....It is your mis conception that your organisation will delay your promotion or you will undergo any harassment in your organisation if you did not clear in UPSC....if it is a govt organisation, you need not worry about it as they can't create any problem...I have several friends in civil services who worked in DRDO,ISRO,NTPC,etc who declares and later on in that attempt they didn't qualify in CSE but never had any problem and when they got selected in next attempt they came out with flying colours with all promotion benefits, etc..further query is welcome....keep blogging...

IAS Vs IRS[C&CE]...Reply to Miss/Mr Anonymous

Hello Miss/Mr Anonymous, thanks for your visit on the blog...Regarding IAS Vs IRS[C&CE]...there is no comparison between IAS and IRS[C&CE] as the area of work is entirely different...Beacon light is a position specific..There are several posts where even IAS is not entitled for beacon..same is the case for IRS[C&CE]...as an Asstt Commissioner, you are not officially entitled for beacon light but We generally use it...If you are in anti-evasion wing, you can officially have beacon light...So, light is not a big factor in deciding the things..once you sit inside the vehicle, you can't see the beacon light and in fact after some time it doesn't matter whether you have light or not on your vehicle..your work speaks louder than beacon lights...I know several officers who don't prefer beacon light vehicle even they are entitled for it....your choice should be based on your area of interest and your intention...I have written several blogs on this matter...You can earn good name only when you love and enjoy your work be in IAS or IRS[C&CE]..of course working conditions are much better in IRS[C&CE] as compared to IAS and of course it is specialised service..you have peaceful Saturday and Sundays which is not possible in IAS..thus choice is yours...further query is welcome...keep blogging...

Regarding Pub Ad and Geography..Reply to Miss Jayashree

Hello Miss Jayashree, thanks for your visit on the blog...Regarding the E-mail Id and name of the books read by Mr K. Mishra whose marks are available on the blog, I want to clarify that We don't have any contact with the said candidate..We have published the marks because somebody asked his marks and we were able to fetch the mark sheet from the UPSC server...Thus we don't know who is he and what all books he read.
Besides, regarding your other query, Yes, I had Pub Ad and Geography as an optionals....ALS printed notes are quite comprehensive..you can reply on them..You should refer other books for diagrams and any uncovered topic in the books only..If possible you can get Mr Alok Ranjan's geography class notes..These will be sufficient...Regarding Pub Ad, Fadia and Sadana are very good books...if you are able to get the concept from these books, it will be suffice....Mohit Bhattachaya is a good book in the sense that it will give you the idea of writing in short about all the things..It's language is good and gives very new ideas which can be incorporated in the answers.

For e.g. Mr X belongs to UP Cadre..It means Mr X is a all India service officer who got UP state for his entire career..However, in between, officials can come to Centre on deputation for few years..after that term, they have to go back to their cadre state...It means, even if your home state is Tamil Nadu, if you are allotted J &K cadre, then you have to serve in J & K only except few deputation posting at Centre or other places.

IIM or IAS/IPS...Reply to Miss/Mr Anonymous

Hello Miss/Mr Anonymous, thanks for your visit on the blog...Regarding your dilemma, it is very natural in current milieu..See, it should be entirely your decision based on your own dreams and requirements. If you are power hungry, attracted by red/blue beacon lights, body guards, want to work for common people,etc then you must go for IAS/IPS. There are ample examples in IAS/IPS who want to take VRS because they may not be satisfied with the slow working style of government set up, less salary, decreasing power, interference by politicians, etc. Thus if you belongs to 5 star and metro culture, want to have huge money [of course clean], living in big houses, travel by BMW or Mercedez, frequent travel abroad,etc then you must think about IIM and corporates because you can't get these things in government service legally. Therefor be clear about your dreams/goals then decide the course of action...In any case, in coming future, era of specialist is coming...grass root democracy is strengthening, literacy is increasing thus no more IAS domination will be there. But of course, IPS is going to be stronger day by day due to law and order problems and related complications.further query is welcome...keep blogging...
