Many of the IAS aspirants
are not very certain about how to proceed with preparing for General Studies
Paper IV on Ethics, Integrity and Aptitude. The recency of this paper makes it
even more challenging to draw a specific pattern of questions which could aid
an aspirant in his/her IAS Preparation. But then there are some hints with
which a candidate can attempt to understand the expectations of General Studies
Paper IV. GS IV is aimed at assessing a candidate’s approach to integrity, attitude
towards uprightness in public life and problem solving skills concerning
different issues and problems in the society. Therefore, it is necessary for an
IAS aspirant to express his views and justify them using variegated case
studies. The main topics which need attention are Ethics and Human Interface,
Attitude, Aptitude and foundational values for Civil Service, Emotional
Intelligence, Contributions of moral thinkers and philosphers from India and
the world, Public/Civil service values and ethics in Public Administration and
Probity in Governance.
Preparing for General
Studies Paper IV can be fun provided an aspirant choses to scrutinize everyday
examples to understand the basic concepts of Ethics. It would also help if a
candidate stays focused on current issues which deal with questions of moral
values and justice and analyse them objectively.
