How to choose books for BPSC

You do not need dozens of books. A small set of standard books, read repeatedly, beats a large pile read once. Start with NCERT books for basics, then add one standard book per subject and revise it at least three times.

Subject-wise starting points

Polity: M. Laxmikanth – Indian Polity.
Modern history: Spectrum – A Brief History of Modern India.
Economy: Ramesh Singh – Indian Economy.
Geography and science: NCERT Class 6–12 plus a good general knowledge book.
Bihar: a recent Bihar GK book and the Bihar Economic Survey.
