    Success isn’t always because of greatness. It’s about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success. Greatness will come.” – Dwayne Johnson.

    IPS Officer Shubham Nagargoje lived by this saying during his entire UPSC and RBI Grade B preparation of three years. Hence, failing to clear the UPSC Prelims twice didn’t deter him. He finally got appointment letters both as an RBI Grade B officer and an IPS officer. His joy knew no bounds and the very first thing he did upon hearing the news was hug his roommate and cry tears of joy. Shubham’s inclination in civil service motivated him to reject the former for the latter.

    As UPSC-CSE aspirants, most of us would have faced the issue of consistency — we achieve our targets for the first month, but soon afterward our preparation (best known to us) fizzles out. Before we know, we would have gone months together without studying due to which we would give the upcoming UPSC exams a miss. This invariably delays the prospects of selection by a year or more.

    But what exactly is consistency? It appears to be a very common word just like ‘sorry’ and ‘thank you’ that everyone throws around. How does it feel to follow consistent life like other UPSC toppers? Consistency in UPSC parlance involves two aspects — being regular and being steadfast. It’s the willpower to read the current affairs in the morning, read the prelims portions in the afternoon, study for your Optional subject in the evening and round it off with a Mains subject at night. It’s the ability to not skip prelims and mains test series on the weekends. And it’s about making time to revise your notes once a week. Even if you miss one of these aspects, you are not true to your preparation.

    Does this sound difficult? Then attend the Ask Me Anything Session with Shubham Nagargoje to understand the five ways you can keep yourself consistent aka motivated for the upcoming UPSC CSE 2021 Mains and UPSC CSE 2022 Prelims exam.

    It’s absolutely free for anyone to attend but due to a fixed duration of 1 hour, we are only having limited slots. So kindly register for the webinar by filling this form right now.

    Time: 7 P.M

  • [Sansad TV] Perspective: Population Slowdown

    UPSC 2022 countdown has begun! Get your personal guidance plan now! (Click here)

    Context

    • According to the National Family Health Survey data for 2019-21, the country’s population is set to fall.
    • The Total Fertility Rate – which is the average number of children born to a woman over her lifetime has dropped to 2 for the first time.

    TFR decline in India

    • In the 2015-16 survey, the national TFR was 2.2, and before that in the 2005-06 survey it was 2.7.
    • Now it has dropped down to 2 – which is below replacement level.
    • The replacement level TFR, at which a population exactly replaces itself from one generation to the next one, is estimated to be 2.1.

    Various reasons for TFR decline

    • Behavioural change in people without any coercion to achieve this feat
    • Use of modern Contraceptives
    • Women Empowerment through increased access to education, labor markets, health services, and contraception
    • Choice to defer having children
    • Stress on financial resources

    Other factors

    • COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated declining fertility rates.
    • The burden of care for families had its disproportionate impact on women.

    Government Initiatives

    • Started as back as 1951, India’s family planning programme is among the world’s oldest.
    • The earliest government communication campaigns sought to promote smaller families. But there was little progress.
    • In 1975, when the government declared Emergency, the desperation to control the population took a dark turn due to forced sterilization.
    • In 1994, the International Conference on Population Development (ICPD), convened under the auspices of the United Nations.
    • The ICPD inspired India’s 2000 National Population Policy.

    Importance of a declining TFR

    • Population stabilization: A TFR of 2 is clear indicator of a country’s long-term population stability. The TFR of 2.1 is a desirable goal for the country.
    • Population no more a liability: This simply suggests that India does not have to worry that a large population is hindering its progress. 
    • Accelerating Economic Growth: Over the next 2 to 3 decades, younger demographic profiles will provide opportunities for accelerated economic growth.
    • Improved healthcare: India’s success in stabilizing population can be largely attributed to increased investment in public healthcare.

    Negative impacts

    TFRs with less than 2.1 children per female suggest that generations are not producing enough offspring to replace themselves and eventually would lead to a declining population.

    • Rise in Ageing populations
    • Deflation caused by the ageing populations
    • Higher dependency ratios
    • Increased strain the global workforce and social benefits.
    • Loss of productivity and innovation

    Way forward

    • Governments must implement targeted social and behavioral change communication strategies to ensure that men are also responsible for family planning. 
    • The government must provide health and life-skills education at an early age along with ensuring access to sexual and reproductive health services.
    • It must absolutely swear off coercive population-control policies for good.

    Success isn’t always because of greatness. It’s about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success. Greatness will come.” – Dwayne Johnson.

    IPS Officer Shubham Nagargoje lived by this saying during his entire UPSC and RBI Grade B preparation of three years. Hence, failing to clear the UPSC Prelims twice didn’t deter him. He finally got appointment letters both as an RBI Grade B officer and an IPS officer. His joy knew no bounds and the very first thing he did upon hearing the news was hug his roommate and cry tears of joy. Shubham’s inclination in civil service motivated him to reject the former for the latter.

    As UPSC-CSE aspirants, most of us would have faced the issue of consistency — we achieve our targets for the first month, but soon afterward our preparation (best known to us) fizzles out. Before we know, we would have gone months together without studying due to which we would give the upcoming UPSC exams a miss. This invariably delays the prospects of selection by a year or more.

    But what exactly is consistency? It appears to be a very common word just like ‘sorry’ and ‘thank you’ that everyone throws around. How does it feel to follow consistent life like other UPSC toppers? Consistency in UPSC parlance involves two aspects — being regular and being steadfast. It’s the willpower to read the current affairs in the morning, read the prelims portions in the afternoon, study for your Optional subject in the evening and round it off with a Mains subject at night. It’s the ability to not skip prelims and mains test series on the weekends. And it’s about making time to revise your notes once a week. Even if you miss one of these aspects, you are not true to your preparation.

    Does this sound difficult? Then attend the Ask Me Anything Session with Shubham Nagargoje to understand the five ways you can keep yourself consistent aka motivated for the upcoming UPSC CSE 2021 Mains and UPSC CSE 2022 Prelims exam.

    It’s absolutely free for anyone to attend but due to a fixed duration of 1 hour, we are only having limited slots. So kindly register for the webinar by filling this form right now.
