Overview

Current affairs change constantly; reliable preparation depends on official sources, dated notes and steady revision rather than memorising rumours.

Key points

Use official sources: PIB, ministry websites, RBI, ISRO, the Election Commission.
Write each item as: date — event — who — where — why it matters.
Group notes into national, international, economy, science, sports, awards and appointments.
Revise weekly and compile monthly.
The usual window for is the 6–12 months before the exam.

Explanation

Link each current item to its static background (e.g. a new scheme to its ministry).
Verify numbers and names against the official release.
Practise with dated questions to test recall.
In the last two weeks, revise only your own compilations.

Step by step

Check the source.
Note with date and relevance.
Revise regularly.

Examples

Note format: "[date] — [scheme] launched by [ministry] to [purpose] — source: PIB".
A new space mission note links to ISRO’s earlier missions (static background).
An award note records the field, winner and the awarding body.

Traps and advanced points

Trap: Memorising unverified social-media forwards.
