It is difficult to get these books from internet even. Even in delhi you will find these books only in few markets like old rajinder nagar,mukherjee nagar, ber sarai.
So it is better u pay one visit to delhi... I wld be useful.. As you will save much of time. Also u will get variety of books.

@mubinakadri You can start with Public Administration by M Laxmikant. Its a good book to start, especially for beginners.

@Neyawn
i had odered s polinaidu to begin with ,shall i change mah decision?

Neyawn

No, you should not. Read Poli Naidu for a while and understand it as as much as you can. Remember that during the preparation, you will inevitably buy multiple books. Read it, and if you need any other book, you may buy them.

@neyawan....thnks a lot..:)
