Booklist for GS4 i.e. Ethics:
This subject doesn't require long list of books. Simply one book or class notes will suffice. But most important thing is to practice PYQs for both sectionA(theory) and sectionB(case studies).
1. You can follow Mudit Jain sir's book for this.
Or you can also follow Peeyush Kumar sir's classes or notes. Peeyush sir's approach is quite helpful for this subject
2. Practice questions and case studies from PYQs. This is the most important part of ethics preparation.

Each year on 26th November we celebrate "Constitution day". No doubt we should celebrate this day because Indian Constitution aims to liberate indians from age-old discrimination and persisting inequality in the society. But what should be the ideal way to celebrate this day?- Is just bowing down to the Constitution enough? I don't think so.
In this process of bowing down to constitution, what we forgot is the ideals and philosophy behind the constitution- liberty , equality and fraternity.
The real concern is about non-implementation of the constitutional provisions in the real sense. Does equality became reality? Does everyone has liberty? Does everyone in India believes in the idea of India, the idea of Indian fraternity? The answer is Big NO.
Still there is lot of inequality in India in every arena of human life be it social, political and economic.
So does we as an indians asking questions to the government about status of implementation of the constitutional values? Are we holding the government accountable?
In this context Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, the father of Indian constitution, too held that,
“…however good a Constitution may be, it is sure to turn out bad because those who are called to work it, happen to be a bad lot. However bad a Constitution may be, it may turn out to be good if those who are called to work it, happen to be a good lot."
So what can we as a responsible citizen of this beautiful country take from the above message of Babasaheb?
We should try to inculcate constitutional values in the people in a way that those values should become part of their personality. People should feel empowered to such an extent that they can fearlessly ask questions to the people sitting in the government. Because the real tribute to the makers of the Indian constitution is in implementation of provisions of the constitution. The real tribute is in taking honest efforts to bring equality in the society(at least we can start from ourselves). The real tribute is in trying to make the ideals in the constitution a Reality.
