I have been receiving a large number of enquiries every day regarding the Mentorship Program and Current Affairs Program for BPSC and UPPCS aspirants. Over the past few months, I have not been able to launch these programs due to certain personal commitments. I sincerely appreciate your patience and continued trust during this period. I am now pleased to announce that I will soon be launching a Prelims Mentorship-cum-Current Affairs Program, designed exclusively for BPSC and UPPCS aspirants. Program Highlights: - Comprehensive coverage of 2 Current Affairs Magazines. - 25+ Practice Tests based on the latest exam pattern - Daily Study Schedule to ensure disciplined preparation - Subject-wise Priority Tests for focused revision - A structured approach combining Current Affairs + Static GS from the Prelims perspective The objective of this program is to provide a clear roadmap, consistent guidance, and exam-oriented preparation to help you maximize your performance in the upcoming Preliminary examinations. Further details, including the schedule, syllabus, and enrollment process, will be shared shortly. Stay tuned! @iaspcssimplified
