surprisingly,mam at 8.30 said about sure que from hannah, and it was in 2014 paper. for Indian political thought you may refer. 1Thomas menthan(check spelling) 2. Indian thought by vp verma 3. ranchnadra guha
surprisingly i asked about Buddhist tradition at 4:35 yesterday and there was a question on that. see i have vp verma, padhy and mp singh all three books but on where they have mentioned buddhist tradition and regarding dharmashastra vp verma say in bits and pieces but im confused as it include only Manu or will we have to read valmiki and vyas and narada as well?
@rookie94 and other fresh engg background aspirants: PSIR is very interesting but vast as well. I found Western political thought very interesting and that's why I took up the subject (decided it as late as August last year) but managed around 190 marks in CSM 13 and ofcourse didnt qualify. I will only urge you not to worry about the syllabus because in the end you will be cover most topics and Pol sc and GS will compliment each other.
attended shubra ranjan mam's orientation class at 8am. mam explained the full syllabus in a simpler note. start is due with indian political thought. classes now from monday. room is very tiny ,didn't expected such huge amount of students going for pol sci. majority of them are ba/ba+ma in pol sci. ahh mechanical optional me thermodynamics kyu hai.:-(:-(.
