0:04How will you empower the women in your
0:06area? When a bill is passed by the state
0:08legislature, what options does the
0:10governor have in front of him? What is
0:13the historical significance of Banar?
0:16How is justice or bulldozer justice
0:18different from justice? In common
0:20perception when we talk about uniformed
0:22services in India, the army has a very
0:25positive image in the minds of people.
0:27However, the police forces is viewed
0:29with skepticism. Why is it so?
0:39[Music]
0:44May I come in sir? Yes, come in.
0:48Good morning, sir. Good morning. Please
0:50be
0:52seated. Please give a brief introduction
0:54about yourself. Uh, sir, my name is
0:56Shaki Dub. I belong to Priyagar district
0:58of Uttar Pradesh. I have done most of my
1:01education and schooling from Priyagra
1:03itself. I did my graduation from
1:05University of Alahabad and further I
1:08moved to Banaras Hindu University to
1:10complete my post-graduation in
1:12biochemistry which I have completed in
1:152018. Since then I have been preparing
1:17for the civil services examination and
1:20this is my fourth attempt at UPSC. Shaki
1:23you are so passionate to join the civil
1:26services. Civil services if you ask me
1:28my opinion about the civil services. It
1:31is a very complicated service perks are
1:35not commensurate with the efforts you
1:38make in the while working as a civil
1:41servant. Deion making is pretty slow and
1:44all that. Still you are wanting to join
1:47the civil service. Could you give me a
1:50plausible explanation for this? Yes sir.
1:52Because uh looking at the career option
1:55that I was looking for, it was basically
1:58coupled with my personal growth and
1:59development along with having the power
2:01to empower the people in the society to
2:04bring changes at the societal level. So
2:06according to that I think UPSC provides
2:08civil services provides that opportunity
2:11to work at the ground level to
2:12understand the problem and uh to design
2:15policies etc that can help for the
2:17betterment and upliftment of the people.
2:19So this is what has attracted me
2:21towards. So you want
2:23to uh empower the people who are not
2:26otherwise empowered. Suppose you are
2:29posted as district by state of uh pray.
2:33How do you skill the youth? So first and
2:36the for foremost thing in with respect
2:38to skilling the youth is that there is a
2:41need to first analyze the issues that
2:43are there in this uh district. First
2:45thing second thing we need to understand
2:47the gaps that are there in the people.
2:49what is required and accordingly there
2:51are also certain government programs
2:53that government is has started like the
2:55koshal vikasha etc. According to that
2:58people can be made aware about
2:59government scheme and they can be
3:00enrolled for the same for their that can
3:03help them in giving the skills for
3:05employment as well as for their overall
3:08development as the society and economy
3:10of the district and uh how will you
3:13empower the women in your area? So there
3:15are uh there are certain specific issues
3:18related to women. If you look at uh
3:19Uttar Pradesh in general and Priyagra of
3:22course first and the foremost problem is
3:24the uh lack of participation of women at
3:27the leadership leadership position both
3:29and the social as well as in the
3:31political sphere. Second thing is there
3:33is still the patriarchal mindset that is
3:35entrenched there. We see the problems of
3:38sun meta preference that is still going
3:39on. So there are first first and
3:42foremost thing is to focus on the
3:43education for women. so that they are
3:45aware about their rights. They are aware
3:47about the policies and schemes that the
3:49government is coming up for them so that
3:52uh they can better understand their
3:54abilities, their capabilities and can
3:56come forward. What steps will you take
4:00uh for women's safety? So for women's
4:02safety I think for certain things like
4:04first is awareness of the women about
4:06their rights first thing. Second we can
4:08have for the safety and security another
4:10important thing that can be done is
4:12installing CCTV cameras. so as to make
4:14them secure while they are traveling or
4:16while they are out. Second thing is uh
4:18there can be the laws related to the
4:20sexual harassment at the workplace can
4:22be properly implemented having internal
4:24the complaint committee etc. So that
4:26women they are comfortable in working.
4:28Apart from that if in order to engage
4:30the married women's etc and workplace we
4:33need to have proper policies related to
4:36the crutch facilities etc and proper
4:39leaves also should be provided to women
4:40so that they are able to manage their
4:43work life balance. They can have a
4:45proper work life balance. Talking about
4:46the health system in our country. Do you
4:50think that India should go for health
4:53for all or insurance for all principle?
4:56Sir I think there uh there are they are
4:58having it its own importance both they
5:00think health for all insurance both I
5:02think however the focus should be first
5:04on prevention that is such so that we
5:06can avoid the diseases or we can avoid
5:09the problem of poor health that thus the
5:12focus should be first on nutrition etc
5:14and apart from that insurance can also
5:17be coupled with this however my my own
5:20suggestion would be to focus first on
5:22prevention rather than cure and
5:24insurance what is the difference between
5:27preventive treatment and a promotive
5:29treatment. Uh I think preventive
5:31treatment is s the basically steps like
5:33vaccination or immuniz immunization and
5:36also awareness among people
5:38ensuring cleanliness etc. so as to avoid
5:41the disease at the first place.
5:43Promotive is in case the disease there
5:44are certain disease that are spread for
5:46example anything like cancer etc in
5:49women are very prevalent the breast
5:51cancer or cervical cancer etc then
5:53proper treatment should be available at
5:55so that they are able to avail those
5:57treatments they are affordable as well
5:59as accessible for them thank you very
6:00much Shaki I could see in your dav that
6:04your home village is in Balya district
6:07yes my father belongs to Bal my father
6:08and mother belong to Ballaya so you
6:10don't feel that you belong to Balya No,
6:13actually I have been born and brought up
6:14in Priyagarat. So I have stayed
6:15throughout my life in Priyad. Have you
6:17visited your village ever? Uh yes or
6:19once or twice? Only twice. Yes sir.
6:22Okay. So Ballaya is part of which
6:23division of Uttar Pradesh. So Azamar
6:26division of and how many other districts
6:27are there? Uh sorry sir I need to read
6:29about that. Okay. Which language is
6:32spoken there locally? Bhpuri. And uh
6:35nowadays you are studying in Priyagar.
6:38Yes sir. Which language is spoken in
6:39Priyagra? Hindi is there. uh and apart
6:43along with that there are different
6:44dialects in different regions. Which

6:53park and there is also ai some people
6:55they speak. There is also dialect called
6:56alhabadi dialect that is also very
6:58prevalent in and bjpuri is spoken in
7:01many other countries of the world also.
7:03Are you aware of the countries where
7:05bjpuri is used by the people? No sir I'm
7:07sorry I'm not aware about that. You
7:09don't know any about any of the
7:10countries? No sir, I think I'm more
7:12probably if it could be, if I could take
7:14a guess, it could be countries like
7:16Nepal which is closer to the border of
7:18Uttar Pradesh and behind. Okay. Uh your
7:21preference for foreign service is very
7:23low. Sixth. Yes sir. Why? So actually my
7:26preference for the service is the Indian
7:28administrative service and the Indian
7:30police service. Apart from that based on
7:32Yes, I understand. But why foreign
7:33service is so low? So but based on my
7:36limited knowledge I have arranged
7:37because I had to give preference to
7:39different services. So according
7:41accordingly I have placed first and
7:43second is the main preference. Beyond
7:44that I have just based on the knowledge
7:46I had about the services I have ranked
7:48them in that order. Okay. Uh which
7:49institutions in the world are called
7:51Bretonwoods institutions. Okay. So these
7:54are the institutions that have been
7:55established at the Bretonwoods
7:57conference which includes the IMF. uh
8:00then it is the World Bank and then the
8:02later World Trade Organization was
8:04formed as uh it was after as a as a
8:07successor of GT that was the sorry I
8:12cannot recall the full form of that and
8:14where are they located their
8:15headquarters? So headquarters sorry I
8:17need to read about that I cannot recall
8:19and what about the World Bank? Uh do we
8:21have any person of Indian origin
8:23officiating there at the top level?
8:27Sorry sir I'm not aware about that.
8:29Okay. Have you also heard about
8:30financial financial stability board?
8:33FSB. Yes sir, I have heard about the
8:34financial stability board. So this
8:37basically looks after the I've heard
8:39about it but I need to read. I'm not
8:41aware. What about World Economic Forum?
8:43World Economic Forum. Yes, it is an
8:45international or multilateral
8:47organization that looks uh looks across
8:49the uh economy of the world and it
8:52basically provides information related
8:54to that only. Is it an agency of the UN?
8:56No sir, it is not an agency of human. So
8:58what kind of institution it is? It's an
9:00independent autonomous institution.
9:02Okay. And why they are in news? So I
9:05need to read about it. I'm sorry. Do
9:07they have their annual conference
9:09sometimes in January? So I'm not aware
9:11about that. I need to read about it.
9:14Okay. And uh you like playing badminton?
9:18Yes. Recently I have developed an
9:19interest and I'm trying to explore this.
9:21Can you tell us uh a very famous many of
9:24the famous badminton players from Uttar
9:26Pradesh? So from Uttar Pradesh names of
9:29two three players. So if I'm not wrong
9:31Sina Neal is AC is from Uttar Pradesh.
9:34Sorry I think Praash I just know some
9:36prominent badminton players in general
9:39like Prakash Padu and S I'm talking
9:41about players from Mtar Pradesh. No sir
9:44I'm not about aware specifically from my
9:46final question what's the difference
9:48between Eoli and Boli? So these are two
9:50different strains of the bacteria that
9:54so exact difference I'm not aware. Thank
9:58you. Uh Shi you are a student of PS.
10:01Okay. So tell me what is the difference
10:03between a federation and a
10:04confederation. So federation as a
10:07federation is basically an arrangement
10:10where the states they are come they come
10:12together. There can be two types of
10:13federation. Coming together federation
10:15and holding together federation. Coming
10:17together federation the best example is
10:19USA. We are 50 countries they have come
10:20together to form a federal federal unit.
10:23While holding together federation India
10:25is an good example of that. Apart from
10:27that confederation if I talk about the
10:29example can be European Union where
10:32several countries though they are
10:33sovereign in its own being held. India
10:35is said to be quasi federal. Yes sir.
10:37Why so? Because the Indian constitution
10:40have both the federal as well as the
10:42unitary features that are there. There
10:44are federal features like the seven
10:45schedule where the power between the
10:47center and state is properly divided and
10:49apart from that we also have the
10:50bicameal legislature at the center. What
10:52do you understand by confrontational
10:54federalism and do you think in recent
10:57times it has become a defining feature
10:58of Indian federalism? confrontational.
11:02Isa, I would not say that it has became
11:04a defining feature. But however, this is
11:06a term which is used uh in a derogatory
11:09sense which basically uh implies the
11:11difference in opinion that is going on
11:13between the center and state basically
11:15because of the office of governor like
11:17we are watching because uh of the issues
11:19especially in the part in the states
11:21where when a bill is passed by the state
11:23legislature what options does the
11:25governor have in front of him? So the
11:28governor has the has the power to give
11:31ascent to the bill can send the bill for
11:33the reconsideration can also reserve the
11:35bill for the presidential uh
11:37consideration. So only three options are
11:38there or four options are there or and
11:40can also reject can reject the bill give
11:43the ascent withhold the ascent or it can
11:45uh return it for reconsideration or send
11:47it back to the send it to the president
11:49for the consideration. Can the governor
11:50keep it pending? Uh so uh
11:52constitutionally this should not be done
11:54uh because article 200 directly says uh
11:58commands the governor to give the ascent
11:59to the bill or react on that as soon as
12:01possible. Okay. Shi tell me there has
12:04been this uh trouble in our neighborhood
12:08where India is being accused of being a
12:10bully by one of our neighbors. Do you
12:13agree with this viewpoint? No sir, I
12:15will not agree with that that uh India
12:18is being seen as a bully because India
12:20has always considered the neighbor
12:22neighboring country especially the
12:23smaller we consider the neighborhood to
12:25be our backyard that makes us a bully
12:28not a not a backyard sir not I don't I
12:31will not call it a bully however India
12:33has tried to project itself as leader in
12:36the especially in the Indian Ocean
12:38region and and is trying to establish
12:40its stronghold and emerge as a net
12:42security provider for this India has
12:44been continuously engaging with these
12:46countries and at times this stand of
12:49India is being looked upon as uh the
12:51given the term that is called as the big
12:53brother syndrome where India is trying
12:55to okay what was operation AJ and where
12:58was it conducted sorry sir I'm not able
13:00to recall right now uh now
13:04Narihan has been passed right yes sir do
13:07you think this measure is too little too
13:10late sir but it I if it is even if it is
13:13late I These kind of concrete steps are
13:15very important to ensure the
13:17participation of the women in the
13:19political sphere because whatever bills
13:21or whatever laws that are made in the
13:23country should have the women center
13:25when will it be implemented? So after
13:27the uh census of 2026 and the new
13:29delimitation when it will be conducted
13:31after that it will be my final question
13:33to you because you come from Uttar
13:34Pradesh. Yes sir. And Uttar Pradesh is
13:36known for bulldozer justice. Yes sir. So
13:39how is justice or bulldozer justice
13:41different from justice? Sir, in my
13:44opinion uh bulldoer bulldozer justice is
13:48basically a very confrontational
13:50approach. This should not be adopted
13:52because everything has a procedure
13:54through law. It should be taken up.
13:56However, the government has been uh
13:58taking this step. But according to
14:00government, it is basically done on the
14:02buildings etc. that have been done
14:04illegally. That there's an element of
14:06collective punishment in this. Yes sir.
14:08But they should be avoided. Thank you.
14:11Hello Shanti. Good morning. My first
14:14question is since you have lived in
14:16Banaris, right? What is the historical
14:17significance of Banara city? Banaris is
14:20basically considered to be the spiritual
14:22capital of Uttar Pradesh because of the
14:24presence of various spiritual pilgrimage
14:27sites like the Kashi Vishwanat temple is
14:29there. We also have a shakti there that
14:31is known as a Vishalaki temple. Apart
14:33from that the gart that is since it is
14:35located on the bank of river Ganga. The
14:37guts also hold a huge significance
14:40there. So that is why it has been
14:42considered as a spiritual capital. Okay.
14:43List some of the UNUSCO world heritage
14:45sites from UP. Uh ma'am one is the Taj
14:49Mahel
14:50Paturri I think I can recall only two
14:53right. All right. Um which city in UP is
14:57known as Natagree? Sorry ma'am I'm not
14:59aware about that. All right. Okay. uh
15:02you know like tell us about the problems
15:04of your district that you live and how
15:06you can overcome or what steps will you
15:09take to overcome those problems. Um
15:11three major problems as I can observe in
15:14Priyagar district that I have observed.
15:16First is the issue first is the issue of
15:18the lack of women participation. We I
15:21still see there people women are not
15:23actively engaged in outdoor work
15:25especially. Second thing is there is
15:28also the concern related to safety and
15:29security of women. Third thing that I
15:31would like to highlight is the problem
15:33that goes on there is of criminalization
15:36of politics is also an issue in the
15:38entire Uttar Pradesh as a state and Prad
15:41as a district even. What are the steps
15:43that you will take? So imam in order to
15:45ensure the safety and security of women.
15:47I think women must be aware about their
15:49rights. They must be educated. Education
15:51is a primary step in this regard. And
15:54talking about the criminalization of
15:55politics for that I think there is a
15:57there is a need that we come up with a
15:59proper uh code of conduct that has to be
16:02followed so that we can avoid the
16:04criminals in the politics as such. Some
16:07of the handiccrafts of eastern UP ma'am
16:11handiccrafts of mja products from the
16:12priagra which is also one district under
16:14the one district one product the baskets
16:16etc they are very famous apart from that
16:18badi the carpet is very famous from
16:20there uh from banaris the banari silk
16:23and from luckno the chicken curry
16:25embroidery is also very famous so all
16:27right thank you thank you uh Shaki uh
16:30you have done some work in the field of
16:33nanomaterials as well uh can you tell us
16:35what are nanomaterials
16:37Basically the particles which are in the
16:39size of 1 to 100 into 10 ^ - 9 m they
16:42are considered to be the nanop
16:44particles. Basically at this size the
16:46particle they exhibit certain specific
16:47characteristic features that has been
16:49exploited for advancement or this
16:52technology and other uh okay uh can you
16:54tell us some of the applications of
16:56these nanomaterials apart from
16:58healthcare? Uh okay sir uh apart from
17:00healthcare recently the liquid nanoura
17:02that was being patented by IFCO it can
17:04be used as because this will decrease
17:06the excessive overuse of ura and etc.
17:09Apart from that cordiceps nanop particle
17:11were also there okay those were for the
17:13health sector only for the drug
17:15delivery. Apart from that we can also
17:17have nano detectors etc that can be used
17:19for detecting say the pollutants uh et
17:22in the air etc. And that this will make
17:24it very easy for people to understand
17:26the uh do we see the use of nanom
17:28materials in the apparel industry as
17:30well. Yes sir. The I think recently
17:32there has been the use of that smart
17:35materials that we are talking about in
17:37that also there has been uh the debate
17:40or discussion around the use of
17:41nanomaterials and that okay uh you have
17:44done some work in the cancer uh uh drug
17:49delivery also. uh so of late we are
17:52witnessing a uh greater uh prominence of
17:55cancer cases uh in our population what
17:58could be the possible reasons for sudden
18:00spike in the number of cancer cases so I
18:02think one of the major reason for since
18:04cancer is basically considered to be a
18:06non-communicable dis mutation related
18:09problem that basically takes place I
18:11think a lifestyle could of people can be
18:14one reason for example there is increase
18:16after the covid there has been increase
18:18in mental health related issues also
18:20people have resorted to things like
18:21smoking etc. That could could be one
18:23cause health and hygiene lack of proper
18:25health and hygiene spec specifically in
18:27case of women that is late leads to
18:30problem like cervical cancer etc. So I
18:32think these are some of the reasons I
18:34can recall right now. Okay. Uh since you
18:36mentioned uh the mental health aspect uh
18:39so mental health is essentially a
18:41psychological uh problem or it has a
18:44biological basis also. I think sir this
18:47has this is a combination it's a very
18:49complex process the mental the mental
18:51health of a person is impacted by many
18:53factors it can be some biological health
18:56related issues it can also be based on
18:58the environment in which they are it
19:00also depends upon the level of stress
19:01they are taking etc so it is basically a
19:04complex process combining of v several
19:07other factors also okay uh I see that
19:09you your father was associated with the
19:12up police yes sir uh so in common
19:14perception when we talk about uh
19:16uniformed services in India. The army
19:18has a very positive image in the minds
19:21of people. However, the police forces is
19:23viewed with skepticism. Yes sir. Why is
19:25it so? So I think this is basically an
19:28issue of the behavior and lack of trust
19:31that exist between the people. At times
19:33police in several places especially
19:34Uttar Pradesh has been very assertive in
19:36exercising their power. So there is this
19:39is one of the reason why there is lack
19:40of trust among the people and the police
19:43and this is the reason uh why people are
19:46not very much comfortable or they not
19:47very much cordial they feel uh with the
19:49police department and what can be done
19:52to solve this problem. I think there has
19:54to be change in the behavioral aspect. I
19:56think especially the police training
19:57should be done such that so that they
19:59view the problems with sensitivity and
20:02they are much more cordial and they have
20:04to be very much more empathetic towards
20:05the public. So I think this could be
20:07okay. Uh do you know about DIPS domestic
20:10systemically important banks? Yes sir I
20:14have read about them. Uh what are these
20:16banks and who gives this recognition to
20:18any bank? So I need to read about that
20:20but okay no problem. Uh can you tell us
20:23which is the largest bank in the world?
20:25Uh no sir I'm sorry I'm not aware state
20:28bank of India. Um I suggest you read a
20:30little on uh that issue. Okay sir. Okay.
20:34Okay. Uh my final question to uh you is
20:37um I am assuming that you must have read
20:39about the GST. Uh petrol and diesel are
20:42not included under the uh purview of
20:44GST. Why? So these are basically because
20:48these are the major source of revenue
20:50for the states. So they have been left
20:51it up to the states in order to because
20:54GST was a gradual it was it is to be
20:57implemented gradually so that states are
20:58not deprived of their revenue. So there
21:01are certain elements like the alcohol or
21:03the this petrol diesel etc. It has been
21:05left to the states as of now. So it is
21:07just the petrol and diesel or there are
21:09any other fuels as well which are not
21:11under GST. Sir uh I can as I can recall
21:14petrol and diesel are the only fuels
21:15that are not under the perview of GST
21:17but other products like alcohol,
21:19newspaper etc. are also not under the
21:21perview of GST. It is okay. Just read
21:24about it a little bit. Thank you. Thank
21:26you Shaki. It is generally believed that
21:29women uh living in the indogetic basin
21:33are more susceptible to ovarian cancer.
21:37Is it scientifically proven hypothesis?
21:41So in my opinion it's not in scientific
21:43that specifically women of the gangic
21:46planes are exposed to ovarian cancer. I
21:48think this is an hygiene related issue.
21:50Whenever proper menstrual hygiene is not
21:52maintained, the women they go through
21:54this issue of and they develop cyst or
21:56cancer in their ovaries and they also
21:57suffer from problems of cervical cancer.
22:00Okay. What do you mean by new feminism?
22:02New feminism this is basically sir the
22:05that we are watching observing in the
22:07recent recently because of the advent of
22:10the digital technology a new wave of
22:12feminism for example the me too movement
22:14etc that took place. I think in my
22:16opinion this is the new this is your
22:18explanation of new feminism. Okay. One
22:20last question.
22:22You write poems, quotes. You are also a
22:27debater. Yes sir. Your creativity is at
22:30the best while writing poems or while
22:32debating or writing quotes. Sir and I
22:36think I write code. I write good quotes.
22:38And sir, can you share uh one or two
22:41good quotes which uh are very close to
22:44your heart? Yes sir. One quote I have
22:46written was cracks were the real
22:48weakness of the walls but cracks were
22:50also the reason the light entered
22:52within. So one is this another blessings
22:55are intended to be your reward yet the
22:58deeds are still the cause. Wonderful any
23:01any poem which is uh which you really
23:03like. Yes sir I think I okay sir I will
23:07try my best to recall it. Uh one poem I
23:10have written on what do you write is the
23:12theme of the poem. Okay. I write the sky
23:15and even moon. I write the darkness and
23:18also noon. I write the music and all the
23:21pain. I write the warriors and their
23:23game. I write the darkness and the
23:26twilight. I write the twilight and
23:28little fear. I write the mornings
23:30crystal clear. I write the walk and late
23:33night talks. I write the pictures always
23:35tall. I write the lovers and all the
23:38rain. And I write you above all names.
23:41Thank you very much. It was nice
23:42interacting with you. The interview is
23:44over. You may go down. Thank you so
23:45much, sir. Thank you. Thank you, sir.
23:48[Music]
23:53Come in, sir. Come
23:55in. Your interview date has not come. No
23:58sir, not yet. It's not in the first
24:00phase. Okay. Which attempt is this? It's
24:03a fourth attempt.
24:05Yes sir. So, how was your experience
24:07today with us? This experience was good
24:10but I need to work a lot on myself for
24:12being a lot of time also for that
24:14nothing to worry about. You see your
24:18first your
24:19positives you have an excellent
24:22communication skill. Thank you sir. You
24:24asked you questions on a variety of
24:26issues and you tried to answer to the
24:29questions to the best of your abilities
24:31and with a very clearly and confidently
24:35that is how it should be. Okay, that is
24:37very good in you. Your total deer, total
24:41persona is very good, very positive body
24:44language. Trace of a smile also at
24:46times, but by and large you appear to be
24:48nervous. So you have to get away
24:50nervousness. That is important. And you
24:52are not supposed to be sitting like
24:53this. Go back slightly and rest your
24:55shoulder on. Yes, this is the proper
24:58posture of sitting. So when you go
24:59there, make sure that you sit like this.
25:02That gives an impression that this girl
25:04is really positive, energetic. So you
25:06should appear to be energetic and
25:08positive. That is very important and you
25:10should be loving the interview session
25:12isn't it? It's not a uh quiz competition
25:15or question and answer simply some
25:17questions are asked and you have to
25:19respond to those questions to the best
25:21of your abilities. Again I'm telling you
25:23yes board will like to see whether you
25:25are a fit candidate for the civil
25:27services or not because the test of your
25:29personality number one is your personal
25:32integrity whether this girl is maintains
25:35her integrity or not while answering
25:36questions and integrity of purpose the
25:39way you answer questions that that
25:41should be that should reflect of your
25:44honesty. Yes isn't it? So meaning
25:47thereby no answers based on conjectures
25:50and survises. Okay. Either you know or
25:53you don't know. Doesn't matter if you
25:54don't know three four five question
25:55doesn't matter but no compromise on
25:58integrity issue. Then most of the issues
26:01questions try to give a very balanced
26:03view very after weighing pros and cons
26:05of alternatives give a very balanced
26:07view that is very stay your what you are
26:11your natural uh in a natural way. So be
26:14yourself. That is very important.
26:16Communication is first class. Don't ever
26:18try to we you didn't argue with us but
26:21don't ever try to argue with board
26:23members. Okay sir. So we are we can't
26:25afford to be argumentative. Okay. Yes
26:27sir. With all this let's come to today's
26:30performance. By and large these are all
26:32positives. You see you entered into the
26:36area of guesswork while talking about
26:39badminton. If you don't know candidly
26:41admit sir I don't recolct any name any
26:45badminton player who hs from up matter
26:48ends there the moment you start sal this
26:50that then you are in trouble then again
26:52make it make sure that doesn't happen
26:54when you go okay sir okay incidentally I
26:57think sad modi is a big name in up isn't
27:01it anyway if my basic point is if you
27:05don't recollect no issues but in your
27:08eagerness to name somebody don't Don't
27:10give a wrong name that that is what is
27:12important. Ecoli Boli I think E.coli is
27:16bacteria and uh boli is protojova. Okay.
27:21Isn't it? Yes. So that that that's the
27:23difference. So yeah you have done your
27:25post reution and all that. Somebody may
27:27be interested in knowing not this
27:29question but some other question or some
27:31related question. There again you you
27:34have to be very very attentive to
27:36understand the intent of the question.
27:37what exactly is required from me and
27:40then if you don't know again same thing
27:43same logic apply yes sir doesn't know
27:45you have studied that doesn't mean that
27:47you should be speaking without knowing
27:49okay GST also your question was answer
27:52was all right but uh on proing they said
27:55you said that petroleum products and all
27:57that it includes crude oil ATS
28:00everything okay if you had elaborated
28:03probably one your answer would have been
28:05one notch above
28:08Then in terms of market capitalization
28:10after this merger of SDFC and finance
28:12has the biggest bank in the country just
28:15for your information. Operation
28:19AJ people from Israel were lifted. Okay.
28:22So that is what is called there are four
28:24five operations as a student of
28:26political science and international
28:28affairs are supposed to be knowing all
28:30that. Then on
28:32the bully issue, India is a bully and
28:35all that. So your answer was okay. But
28:39you could have refined your answer by
28:42citing some examples of Gujaratal
28:44doctrine. We follow Gujaral doctrine. We
28:46follow neighborhood first policy saga
28:49and all those issues are there. So such
28:52questions which are your strong areas
28:55there try to think quickly
28:57how more refined answers I can give. Yes
29:01sir. So that will help you also. World
29:05Economic Forum and all that I mentioned
29:06questions there. So again bottom line is
29:10same either you know or you don't know.
29:11Yes. You don't know say I don't know
29:14that doesn't matter. Okay. You are from
29:16UP lot of issues uh are there with UP
29:20positive and negative both. So study
29:23your state thoroughly more so your
29:25father he's still a police officer he's
29:28a sub inspector. So what are the
29:31problems faced by the police? Number one
29:34particularly at the cutting edge level.
29:36Yes sir. What are the possible
29:38solutions? What are the problems faced
29:40by the people with police with respect
29:43to police? Yes sir. and technological
29:46innovations which have been done of the
29:48in the recent past to reform the police
29:51department. You must be aware of all
29:53those things including that zero fir and
29:56all that they should be fully aware of
29:57for community policing and all those
29:59concepts. How much expenditure in up is
30:02on the police department? Do you think
30:04it is enough or more is required to be
30:06done? police being sent for the
30:09protection of political masters. Is it a
30:13desirable situation where the police
30:15public ratio is so low in our country?
30:17Incidentally, you should also know what
30:19is the standard ratio and what is the
30:21national average and how UP has been uh
30:25doing and where does it stand and police
30:27reforms Singh other committees are
30:29there. read about police reforms also
30:32and the commisserate system of versus
30:34your traditional system. So the the
30:37differences I think you are a wonderful
30:40candidate a very good candidate for the
30:41civil services and just keep your head
30:43on your shoulder. Yes sir. Be honest and
30:47try to answer your questions all the
30:50questions which are proper understanding
30:53and being neutral being balanced and we
30:57have no doubt in your mind that the
30:59interview you'll be getting very good
31:01marks and if you have really done well
31:02in your main examination you should be
31:05in the list of successful candidates no
31:07doubt in our minds. If you have any
31:09specific question to ask feel free to
31:10ask. Uh no sir thank you. You have
31:12addressed most of I think you will be
31:15going in a sari. Yes. Yes. Today was the
31:17first day. So it's all right. Whatever s
31:19you wear you should know about that also
31:21which fabric and all that because you
31:23are coming from uh Uttar Pradesh
31:26Utradesh and then name change and all
31:28that. Those are very questions. Those
31:31questions may be asked. Then again give
31:33a very balanced yes yes or no. Before
31:36saying yes or no give logic for that.
31:38Okay. Your answers have to be very very
31:39logical. Yes sir. Okay. All the best.
31:42Thank you so much, sir. Thank you. Thank
31:44you, sir.
