📘 Mastering Indian Governance – ForumIAS Red Book Expert Series for UPSC Prelims & GS Paper 2 (2025 Edition)
A One-Stop Resource to Decode Governance for UPSC Success
Governance has emerged as one of the most dynamic and high-weightage components of the UPSC Civil Services Examination. Appearing across Prelims, Mains (GS Paper 2) and Essay, it demands not just conceptual knowledge but also real-world application, institutional insight, and policy evaluation.
That’s why ForumIAS presents Mastering Indian Governance, a comprehensive, exam-focused guide curated by expert faculty — built to simplify Governance while preparing you to tackle any question UPSC throws at you.
🧠 Why This Book Matters
In recent years, UPSC has moved away from static definitions and factual recall in Governance questions. What it demands now is:
- Clarity in concepts like accountability, transparency, participatory governance
- Understanding of institutions, reforms, commissions, and case studies
- The ability to link governance with ethics, policy, technology, and inclusion
Mastering Indian Governance is designed to give you exactly that — without the burden of multiple sources or confusing jargon.
