3) policy paralysis in governance
4) india's look east policy (president visited all south east asia countries)
5) nuclear power plants and public deficit (very important, u are DC..etc)
6) social networks and censorship (delhi high court told google and facebook to ban content)
7) American SOPA & PIPA
8) the classical debate on small state vs big state
9) FDI in retail and is it good?
10) depreciation of rupee
11) UID project and if it is good (in govt itself, home and other ministries not supporting)
12) Maoist problem (last year topic)
13) female infanticide (developed states are having lower sex ratio!)

Rajni

Jarawa tribes issue in Andaman Islands is also important for two issues -

1) One of the languages is extinct as the last person who spoke that language died last year and

2)recently tour operators and govt employees were making jarawa tribesmen dance for money. it was national news and union govt has initiated inquiry and action against those responsible

Rajni

we have to analyse the ethical issues involved here.

18) Air India privatisation
19) Disinvestment - Are we killing the goose that lays golden eggs (cross swapping, etc)
20) Have people lost faith in democratic institutions, in the light of public protests, and what can we as public servants do to restore faith.

@Asingh Yes, good questions hav been put above by manish jaisawal. They are also more relevant for UPSC interview candidates from Bihar & UP

Also, there have been many initiatives in Bihar over a no. of issues like anti-graft, development and law & order

Bihar Special Courts Act is relevant for ant-graft as it empowers the state to acquire the property of a public servant acquired through means beyond known sources of income.

In Law & Order terms, Bihar regularly sees vigilantism where a thief or robber is caught by the crowd and beaten to death even before his guilt is proved. the DGP ordered that anyone caught on camera doing this, will be barred from entering into public service/govt job.

Also, in terms of women empowerment, it was the first to implement 50% resevation to women in Panachyati institutions.
