(2/2)
d. Given all the global instability, If we go against war with china in indopacific will the neighbours in indopacific come to our rescue?
e. Based on my response, he asked what is NAM? Why did we adopt such a philosophy? What is our current policy?
f. While our neighbours have elected women as PMs or presidents, india has not been able to do so? What is your take?
Chairman said your interview is over, I thanked everyone and left the place.
All in all, it was a completely different ball game. I went into the place thinking its just another day. This helped me keep my calm. But truth to be told, my heart raced when I was being called to the room. So maintain your calm, don’t get distracted, what people say in mock interviews is not completely relavant.
Mocks given : 2-3 panel mocks (one in hyderabad- the worst, 2 in samkalp- the closest one to interview)
4 one to one dicussions with : sangamitra maam from Hyderabad, KSG (khan sir), pranay aggrawal sir for sociology and Mridul sir (overall discussions). In my opinion one to one DISCUSSIONS are more better than these artificial panel mocks. Do give 2 of them to be confident or getting used to answering 4-5 elders.
I really thank this telegram channel for its wonderful support mechanism. For those have you who have uploaded, I really thank all of you. It gave a sense of certainty in this uncertain interview. For those, who eagerly see every transcript and yet refuse to share yours, donald trump is less selfish than you people. I leave the rest for you to decide on how low can you take yourself.

Congratulated me and said you must be feeling proud and privileged to be here. (I differed and said not proud but definitely glad, which made him laugh)
- You are education secretary and you have to setup an IIT in varanasi and IT BHU still exists. Whether you would like to set up a green field IIT or would you go with upgrading IT BHU in IIT BHU?
(There were some cross questions on this)

- what do you know of the 5th and 6th schedule?

Member 1 (lady member, was listening and smiling continuously) :

- Do you agree with gandhiji's method of satyagraha? Is it applicable today?
- Have you heard of the incident where a DM arrested a person based on an emoji reaction? Do you think such action is justified? ( I was aware of the case so answered accordingly)
- In which case such action is justifiable?
- Suppose you are a DM and you have to make a policy decision. ( She clarified that although you will not get such roles at DM level) You have made the policy but people are protesting outside against it? What will you do?
- what if you believe the protestors are wrong and you are right, will you still listen to them? (I had earlier answered along the line that I will talk to their leader to know their objections, that's why this question. In the end she said well done and seemed satisfied.)
- Asked about my thoughts on equality, equality of opportunity.

- who is the new star of chess in india?

( Discussed for 3-4 minutes on it)

Take only those that will sit in with your perception of your own personality.
You do you !
Your field experience,if any, is your biggest asset. Plan how to highlight them.
All the very best.
