How to read Yojana magazine for your IAS preparation?

 

The government of India itself publishes Yojna magazine. It contains several informational data points about what’s happening in our country. The magazine’s main focus is upon the country’s developments by the government and its decisions. Therefore, Yojana magazine makes a very trustable resource for IAS preparation. However, it is a vast source of information. So the question arises how to study the Yojana magazine to get the most out of it.

The best approach

The UPSC syllabus has changed in several years. So the static resources are not enough to prepare well for the exam. This makes the tracking of required news very difficult. Yojana magazine comes as a savior as it is a trusted source to get all the latest news and information about the country. The Niti Aayog members publish it. The limited time for preparation and vast syllabus of the UPSC exam reduces the time of studying all the available reading material difficult. So you need to take an intelligent approach.

· Every month, the government publishes a new version with different coverage of news from all over India. So read the magazine in a comprehensive manner where you focus on India-centric and social-economic factors.

It is an excellent source to prepare; however, it is not generated for UPSC aspirants specifically. It is a general magazine to make people aware of government actions. Therefore, some of the parts of the magazine might not be useful for the students. So be smart and don’t waste your time on topics that are not a part of your syllabus.

· When you start reading the magazine, you might find several concepts difficult. So first read the complete NCERT to strengthen your foundation, and then begin reading the magazine.

· The magazine contains a note from the desk of the chief editor. This note contains everything that is included in the magazine’s each publication. So make sure to read and understand the inside topics. This will also help you enhance your writing skills and vocabulary for your essay paper. You can learn the writing style along with summarizing the text. Moreover, the note is very tactical, connecting everything fluently happening in the country. So you will surely get to understand the fluency of the answers better.

· When reading the Yojana magazine, make sure to read the heads and sub-heads. This title will help you in building a more to-the-point answer. Also, the breakdown of lengthy content makes the learning process easier.

· When reading Yojana magazine, make small notes or mnemonics to learn the different data given in it.

· Whenever you are reading the Yojana magazine, make sure to keep the previous papers with you. Then, make a comparison between the questions that have been asked. This will indicate which topic has a better chance of framing a question in the exam.

Conclusion

Yojana magazine is a trusted source that provides a good way of getting all the latest information and news. However, to get the most out of it, you should follow the tips mentioned above.
