HOW TO READ THE HINDU ANALYSIS TODAY

Current affairs have an essential role in UPSC-CSE preparation. In this regard Newspapers, especially The Hindu have a central role during preparation as opinion-based questions increased in recent years. The editorial page contains an in-depth analysis of the relevant topic of general studies. It helps not only in mains answer writing but also in prelims as it consists of fact as well as analysis. It enhances the overall aspirant’s capability of thinking about different issues with a multidirectional approach. This holistic approach is also get reflected in solving case studies of ethics paper, essay writing, and interview stage.

Before we go into how and what to read in THE HINDU editorials you should do:

  • Know the UPSC CSE syllabus thoroughly.
  • Analyse the Previous Years Question Paper.
  • Identify the topics relevant to the syllabus.
  • Time of reading newspapers should not exceed two hours.

An important topic to focus on Hindu editorial-

  • Topics related to Government functioning, constitution, amendment, election reforms, parliamentary session, economic planning etc.
  • Focus on important judgments of the High Court and Supreme Court, social issues, environmental issues, women's rights, etc.
  • Focus on international relations- India’s bilateral relation with counties and role in WTO, IMF, UNO, WORLD BANK etc.
  • Government Policies and schemes.

Notes Making-

  • Reading newspapers is not sufficient alone. Aspirants should make subject-wise notes which are further divided into topics & subtopics of the syllabus. When aspirants read newspapers about these topics, they should prepare notes in their own words
