Welcome to Day 15 of TLP Phase II. Please understand that the next 12 weeks are not meant to test your knowledge. Most of you are giving your first attempt and its really important for you to self assess yourself over the fundamentals of various subjects. And even if you have appeared for CSM before, it is always desirable to brush up your basics before you go on to attempt highly analytical and thought provoking questions asked by UPSC. TLP Phase I was designed precisely for that. Moving on to Phase II, we will cover all possible issues of contemporary importance as well as touching upon various aspects of static subjects.

Please be sincere and regular in this phase of your preparation because what you build here will become the foundation of phase II of TLP.

1. There is a general perception that people with impeccable integrity can’t survive long in the public services. What is your assessment of this perception? Substantiate.

2. What imparts the characteristics of ‘services’ to civil services in India? Examine with the help of suitable examples.

3. Why are values like empathy and tolerance significant in civil services? Discuss.

4. The children and young must find greater attention in India’s public policy discourse. Do you agree? Substantiate.
