ETHICS & INTEGRITY : Ethics And Integrity-Theory
Ethics And Integrity-Theory
The basic objective of introducing " Ethics and Integrity" paper as a part of General Studies i.e. IV th paper by the expert committee was to assess the aptitude of a candidate for becoming a prudent Civil Servant. Coincidentally, this subject had never been a part of University Curriculum, hence proper text book is not available in the market. Few scholars ventured to write on the topics covered in the syllabus of the Civil Services. But, surprisingly, students who had revised these books also not finding it to help them to score more. Why so !! In fact, UPSC expects a student to be original and with integrity in thought and action. The hall mark of integrated personality is being tested by posing innovative questions (which are not finding its place in any text book) and by putting you in peculiar ethical dilemma, where there is no best ready made answer, but your originality will pay, your honesty in approach will be rewarded. In the upcoming SAVE classes, you will find an unique approach to deal with the syllabus.
