Extremely, extremely saddened by the events of ORN yesterday evening. When parents send their children to ORN, or when students make the decision to travel themselves, it never presupposes this sort of risk. It is absolutely unacceptable that students should be made to feel unsafe. Although I understand that this could have happened anywhere, but the rules in ORN need to be different, knowing what we know - it’s almost completely inhabited by students.

This weekend my mom had some fever, and I was so concerned. I’m just thinking what it would be like to hear the news of you child be a victim of a hit and run case with no fault of your own.

Praying for the speedy recovery of the victims and hoping that things change, safety should never be a concern for students.

Hey Guys, I have a (slightly frustrating) update.
I was trying to upload the economic survey video, but I had merged a lot of files and for some reason the video file has become corrupted and just won't upload. 8.5 hours of recording wasted.

I'm uploading the complete set of handwritten notes here. A committment is a committment, and I will re-record everything over this week and upload it as soon as possible, latest by 20th.

These notes contain everything you need to read for economy current affairs, including schemes, graphs and data from news articles and all of the economic survey's 13 chapters. They may appear big, but these are handwritten notes and can be finished in one day.

Let's earmark 20th for economy current affais, I promise I will re-record and upload by then. It's very very frustrating and I'm sorry for this mess.

Deeply saddended by the events in kashmir where so many innocent civilians have lost their lives. Terrorism is the worst form of cowardice, I’m sure the Indian Intelligence and Armed Forces will give them a befitting reply.

Condolences to all families who have lost their loved ones, hope their souls rest in peace.

Jai hind.

At Sarrthi IAS, the message is simple. Credibility, Quality and Affordability. We don’t ‘claim’ rankers based on free programs or a one off guidance session. If we say that we have contributed to someone’s journey, it is only when that person is a part of a paid program and that person themselves says that it has helped them. This is my interaction with Ms. Shakti Dubey, AIR-1, UPSC CSE 2024 who was a student of write smart and gs3 in 2023. In this video she talks about her incredible journey and her advice for people giving prelims this year. Do watch.
