👴🏻 UPSC Chairman’s new proposal: only 2 prelims attempts for general category, but valid for 4 mains exams.
- He this in an interview to Indian Express today
- According to the Chairman, this model would not only lessen the pressure but also allow candidates to focus more deeply on Mains preparation
## Mrunal Notes:
- Since my college days (2003-07), I’ve seen many UPSC Chairmans and committees propose reducing attempts and age limits, but they’ve never done it.
- Bcoz, the ruling party has to win elections, and UPSC jobs have a social justice aspect, as many SC/ST/poor households see them as their only escape from persecution.
- Rahul Gandhi’s campaigns on reservation and samvidhaan khatre mein hai have put the government on the backfoot regarding lateral entry. So Modi-ji unlikely to tinker with age-attempt any time soon.
- Please don’t waste your time with clickbait videos about age attempt limit will change. जैसे चल रहा है उस हिसाब से तैयार पे ध्यान देते रहिए।

On the ninth day of Navratri, devotees worship Maa Siddhidatri, the ninth form of Goddess Durga, who is revered as the bestower of supernatural powers and spiritual accomplishments.
She is considered the primordial form of Goddess Parvati and is worshipped for spiritual growth and self-realization.
"या देवी सर्वभूतेषु माँ सिद्धिदात्री रूपेण संस्थिता। नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः।"
