Answer writing in this Book: We have put forth answers to each question as per the demand of the question.

How to use this Book: This book will assist you in answer writing practice in two ways – use this book as a source of reference for the topics and write answers in your own unique way or alternatively, you may write previous years’ answers and compare them with the standard answers provided in this book.
Importance of History as an Optional: History is a popular and very important subject in the UPSC scheme of things because it is included in the IAS Prelims exam and in IAS Mains General Studies papers as well. So you can better use your time by simultaneously preparing for Optional and GS Papers. Topics in History will also be helpful in Essay papers.
Optional subjects have become the deciding factor in getting an interview call. Though UPSC has introduced four GS papers to give a level playing field to all, the dynamic and unpredictable questions of GS papers defeated the purpose and made Optional paper the magic wand. The toppers’ score also tells it loudly that optional subjects play a defining role in determining the selection of the candidates.
So, overall this book is an ideal companion for you going to appear for the Mains examination. To help the aspirants to get acclaimed with the pattern and trend of the exam, this book is a valuable gift to our readers.
