HINDI ,  ME & UPSC

Its been a quite long that I am exhorted to write here , after many hue and cry of Hindi  as a  medium in civil services exam. After appearing in C Sat prelims 2014  I was a bit depressed but  more in doldrums regarding change of medium from Hindi to English. Although I feel more comfortable in English medium and availability of materials in internet and market too , yet my emotional touch with Hindi , which is indispensable now, compel me to continue with  Hindi in Civil services.

    After prelims , I was determined to change my medium but UK PCS notification helped me topostpone my  decision . Today I checked the blog of Gaurav agrraval and find that there is one article that he is signing off from his blog and it was his last article. It was very much inspiring . After reading this article  Gaurav is the first IAS who inspired me a lot.

These lines (Copy pasted below) inspired me  that I m unable to express myself ......

   

Message to the Next Topper

There is a tradition of “passing on the baton”. Each topper passes on his / her message to the next. I found out about it only after the result. So my dear topper! Although I would contact you personally next year after your selection, but wherever you are, if you are reading this, I would tell you only one thing. Being a topper in this exam is God’s will. There are 1000s others who might have worked as hard or even harder than you. So topping is not important. What is important is what you choose to make out of it – what you choose to do… after topping. May you do well in life and serve the people of this country!

Message to the Aspirants

Although UPSC, with its ever changing patterns, will soon render the material on this blog and, infact, myself obsolete, there is one message they can never make irrelevant. And that is, do what you love to do. If you love to study Economics or mechanical engineering, take it as an optional – don’t listen to the person who says it is not scoring or it won’t help in GS. If you want to write in Hindi medium, by all means, write in it. If you want to write in point format, please write in points and forget the people who say you should not write comment / critically analyze in points. Its only your love for the subject, my friends, which will take take you past the finish line.

Gaurav sir I want to say that you have signed off from your blog but this article has signed in into  DEEPS' heart very deeply. Earlier I thought that  IAS toppers have something different from others, Now I say that YOU are diffirent from other IAS toppers .
