Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about BeLeaf's Current Affair for UPSC

Why are current affairs important for UPSC preparation?

The UPSC exam has become increasingly dynamic, demanding aspirants to substantiate their answers with real-life examples and contemporary relevance. Current affairs help you understand the practical application of static concepts, provide insights into evolving issues, and equip you with examples, case studies, and data to write impactful answers. They are crucial for tackling analytical questions in Mains, factual questions in Prelims, and for showcasing awareness during the Interview.

The best sources include:

  • Newspapers (The Hindu, Indian Express).
  • Government websites (PIB, PRS, Ministry portals).
  • Monthly current affairs compilations by reputed coaching institutes.
  • Rajya Sabha TV and All India Radio discussions.

  • BeLeafs Current Affairs portal to get best & relevant content curated for UPSC from all the above sources.

Generally, you should cover current affairs for at least the past 12-18 months before the exam. However, focusing on significant events and issues is more important than covering every minor update.

At BeLeaf IAS, we believe in smart work. Making notes from multiple sources like newspapers, PIB, and magazines can consume a significant amount of time-time that could be better utilized for other critical subjects. Instead, leverage the readily available current affairs materials provided by trusted institutes. Focus on organizing these resources in a way that suits your study style, enabling you to easily revise and apply them effectively in your UPSC exams.

Use current events as examples to substantiate your points. For instance, while answering governance-related questions, mention recent schemes, policies, or case studies to make your answers more relevant and impactful.

  • Use our current affair portal extensively first by studying it by date than later topic wise..
  • Revisit your own notes regularly.
  • Attempt mock tests and quizzes to assess your retention.
  • Focus on recurring themes and interlink topics with static portions of the syllabus.

Ideally, spend 1-2 hours daily reading and analyzing current affairs. Divide this time between newspapers, notes, and revising key topics.

Skipping current affairs is not advisable as it plays a significant role in the exam. Instead, focus on high-yield topics and trusted compilations to make the most of your available time.
