there is a famous saying  "Failure is success if we learn from it." So "Take risks: if you win, you will be happy; if you lose, you will be learned."

Let me tell you a real story: Read it Carefully

I want to share a guy's story. His story will definitely motivate you and will teach you some essential lessons to crack the examination.

He is a resident of Nagina in Bijnor, finished primary school from St. Mary's, followed by his 12th standard at Aligarh Muslim University. He then graduated from Sharda University with his engineering. This guy says that he was a failure throughout his life, not only in UPSC but also in various other exams he gave previously. He gave All India level Engineering Entrance Exam but failed, and later he wanted to move to study abroad and failed horribly. Many of us would have been broken by these failures. 

There might be no motivation inside. However, this man decided to try one of the hardest tests in the world, the UPSC. Yes, UPSC. Yes. Not only once, but over four times he attempted but failed. Yes, not once, not twice, not three times. Yeah. In his fourth attempt, he received AIR 354 and was selected as IRS (Custom) officer. But, could you believe this, he wasn't satisfied? For the fifth time, he again wrote UPSC and achieve AIR (All India Rank) 3.

I've been shocked literally, listening, stunned and joyfully shocked!! The guy I was talking about is none other than JUNAID AHMAD.

The thing we should learn from him is, sometimes we end up trying any further because we don't get the results that we want. We give up when we fail, we lose all the hope in us. But the only one who secures success in life is the one who never stops trying hard, never breaks down, never gives up.

Now, I want before reading further all of you write down in the comment box " I am Accepting this Challenge" or "I am joining this competition"

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.Michael Jordan

Format of Answer Writing

It is not mandatory but if you want to write in a format you can follow this. The format of writings has been divided into 3 sections:

  1. Section 1 – Heading
  2. Section 2 – Body/Main Part
  3. Section 3 – Conclusion

Part 1 – Heading – The heading of the article should be engaging and attractive and it should not exceed more than 4 to 5 words. Make sure your heading doesn’t have any kind of error such as spelling mistakes or grammar errors. Do not use unnecessary punctuation marks in the heading.

Part 2 – Body – It is the main part of the answer writing format which carries more weightage. For the body of the answer, you can include - examples, government interventions, court judgments or any news of relevance, what someone important said about the issue, what you about the issue, etc.

Part 3 - Conclusion - Now, you need to conclude your paragraph, your conclusion should cover the important points of your article.

Remember: It is not mandatory to follow this format. You just have to write the article on the given topic in whatever format you like. We just want that you start writing. There may be mistakes in starting but don't worry we are here to help you.
