SYLLABUS,
i - Hindi syllabus will be made in such a way that the candidates under standing of Hindi language
and efficient use of words can be checked. Its level will be of high school,
General Studies — The question paper of General Studies will include information focusing on eurrent events and
their scientific aspects of such things which come in everyday experience and which can be expected from an
‘educated person. The question paper will also included such questions in the history, polities and geography of
India, to which candidates will be able to answer without special study.
