“After securing rank 5 in UPSC CSE 2022, I received a number of questions regarding the sources that I was using. For Modern Indian History I was using a book written by Snehil Tripathi sir and Sonali Bansal ma’am. Instead of relying on multiple sources, I relied on multiple revisions of the same book. Why did I choose this book? I think there are three reasons for this. Firstly, the book is very comprehensive, very detailed. It’s almost like a story. Secondly, it’s very systematic and very well organized. It helped me in building the timeline in a more vivid manner. And thirdly it has Prelims Capsules at the end of chapters which helps in quick revision.” -Dr Mayur Hazarika (UPSC CSE, 2022 AIR: 5) Meant for aspirants of the Civil Services Examination, this book comprehensively covers the syllabus of the subject –Modern Indian History (as indicated in General Studies Paper-I, Preliminary and Main Exams).
