For those who couldn't make it this time, I can understand and don't want to give you philosophical gyan.
If you have worked hard, you have all the reasons to feel disappointed. Shout, Cry, Feel the pain BUT Bounce Back! This feeling of today is what will motivate you for next 9 months.

Take sometime to identify what went wrong.
Was it CSAT, unnecessary excess guess attempts, basic silly mistake or what not. Take this as a learning and come back stronger 💪.
"कोशिश करने वालों की हार नहीं होती
असफलता एक चुनौती है, स्वीकार करो
क्या कमी रह गई, देखो और सुधार करो
जब तक न सफल हो, नींद चैन को त्यागो तुम
संघर्ष का मैदान छोड़ मत भागो तुम
कुछ किये बिना ही जय जयकार नहीं होती
कोशिश करने वालों की हार नहीं होती"

How to read the newspaper
Newspaper reading is always a challenge for any aspirant. I still remember pile of Indian Express staring at me with desperation of picking it up and finishing them.
But many of us don't know how to read it for best results. Most of us :
- Prepare short notes from newspaper on daily events
- Save articles and highlight it for futre reference
- Read it as separate reading material daily...
Unfortunately these are all WRONG WAYS!
Do you know single newspaper daily has enough content for GS, Ethics, Essay and even Optional. Want to know how? Sharing my views on busting myths on newspaper reading. Watch the video below.

Approach for GS 2
Polity

Eg. FR vs DPSP
- Parliament -
* Trends & Graph on criminal parliamentarians, bills
* Parliament Issues with subcategory
* Parliamentarians- Women, Education, criminal
* Functioning - Speaker, Bills voting
* President, PM, Speaker, Governor
* LSG - Go beyond mere points of funds, functions, functionaries - they can act as subcategories - delve deeper into LSG issues, best practices (sangram, sakala), committee
Subcategorisation helps in learning and understanding dimension - even a qtn on speaker, one can write under idea of parliament functioning
Answer Writing
* Extensive use of Quotations/Constitution Articles
* Small diagrams - QJB as middle of Executive & Judiciary
Governance
* High link with Ethics paper
* Defn, Issues, Initiatives, Issues
* Use of flowchart and diag eg A/cability and transparency
