Current affairs carry steady weight in SSC, Railway, Banking, Police, Teaching and state exams. A weekly routine is the most reliable way to cover them without forgetting facts before the exam.

What to focus on

  • National news: new laws, reports and indices
  • Government schemes and their ministries
  • Awards, sports events and important days
  • Appointments, summits and international organisations

A simple weekly routine

  1. Read short daily notes (15–20 minutes).
  2. On the weekend, revise the weekly compilation.
  3. Attempt a 20-question MCQ practice set and note the mistakes.
  4. Every month, revise the monthly compilation before a full mock test.

Connect news to static topics: an exercise in the Himalayan region is a chance to revise the Himalayan ranges and passes.
