Road to Recommendation

8 times Repeater ➡️Confusion ➡️15 days with us ➡️Two recommendations 1. AIR 2 – TGC 142 2. AIR 25 – SSC Tech 65 This is the journey of Kartikeya Rajpurohit. Before joining us, Kartikeya wanted to meet me in person. He came with high hopes, based on the recommendation of a friend who had trained with us earlier. After meeting him, it was clear that he had strong potential—and he proved it not once, but twice. Like most repeaters, he had genuine concerns: • How to reflect his true personality in the interview • Whether high-level stories or simple, real stories actually lead to recommendation These doubts are common. After multiple attempts, many candidates reach a stage where they have knowledge but lack clarity on how to align everything. After joining us, • Once he understood the deep meaning of each OLQ and how they connect directly with interview questions, he was able to present himself with much more clarity and honesty. • He understood the exact demand of the picture in Psychology and started reflecting his real-life experiences in his stories. With this clarity and right guidance, Kartikeya delivered results. Dosto, as a repeater, there comes a point where you feel confused— You know the process, you have experience, but you’re unable to bring everything together in one focused attempt. That's exactly where we work with you. So if you want to prepare with us, join our upcoming batch: - 2nd January (Online) - 2nd January (Offline at Patel Nagar) To enroll, drop a message to @r2r_shashank Or give us a call at: +91 74840 58164

#lecturette@ssbclear Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw, MC “Leadership is not rank or privilege; it is responsibility.” 1. Introduction Sam Manekshaw, fondly known as Sam Bahadur, was one of India’s greatest military leaders. As the Chief of the Army Staff (1969–73) and India’s first Field Marshal, he is best remembered for his decisive leadership during the 1971 Indo-Pak War, which led to the creation of Bangladesh. His career epitomized courage, clarity, integrity, and soldier-centric leadership. 2. Early Life and Military Career * Born on 3 April 1914 in Amritsar. * Among the first batch of officers commissioned from the Indian Military Academy (IMA), Dehradun, in 1934. * Served with distinction in World War II in Burma; despite being grievously wounded, he survived—an episode that became legendary. * Awarded the Military Cross (MC) for gallantry, reflecting early proof of his bravery and resilience. 3. Leadership in the 1971 War * As Army Chief, Manekshaw insisted on preparedness over haste, resisting political pressure to rush operations. * Executed a brilliant, swift, and coordinated campaign across the Eastern front. * Resulted in the surrender of over 93,000 Pakistani troops, one of the largest surrenders since World War II. * His leadership ensured minimal casualties, operational clarity, and international legitimacy for India’s actions. 4.

Ep 1 of misadventures of Kamal - Ragda for not paying attention in class He asked me sir how do we subdivide the group in GPE and by that time I had already discussed the same thing two minutes back. Chor ki daadhi me tinka! Bas to mai samajh gaya inka dhyan kahan tha! Dosto jo karo wo man se karo. This is Kamal and the good thing is that he took the punishment gracefully and completed the task! If you know how to subdivide the group, do tell us in the comments! To make your learning journey more fun, contact @r2r_shashank

CLIMATE CHANGE – KEY DATA, STATISTICS & FACTS 🌍 Global Climate Indicators * Global average temperature has increased by ~1.2°C above pre-industrial levels (1850–1900). * 2023 was the hottest year on record, with average temperatures ~1.48°C above pre-industrial levels. * The world is projected to breach the 1.5°C threshold temporarily within this decade if current trends continue. * Atmospheric CO₂ concentration crossed 420 ppm in 2023 (pre-industrial level: ~280 ppm). 🌡 Greenhouse Gas Emissions * Global GHG emissions: ~59 billion tonnes CO₂-equivalent per year. * Top emitters (share of global CO₂ emissions): * China: ~30% * United States: ~14% * India: ~7–8% * Per-capita emissions: * USA: ~14–15 tonnes * China: ~8–9 tonnes * India: ~2 tonnes * Global average: ~4.7 tonnes 🌊 Sea Level Rise * Global mean sea level has risen by ~20 cm since 1900. * Current rate of rise: ~3.7 mm per year, accelerating. * By 2100, sea levels could rise 0.4–1.0 metres, threatening coastal cities and islands. ❄️ Ice & Cryosphere * Arctic sea ice extent declining at ~13% per decade. * Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets together losing ~400 billion tonnes of ice per year. * Himalayan glaciers are retreating rapidly; some studies project 30–50% ice loss by 2100 under high-emission scenarios. 🌧 Extreme Weather Events * Frequency of heatwaves has increased 3–5 times since the 1950s. * Floods, cyclones, droughts are becoming more intense and unpredictable. * Economic losses from climate-related disasters exceed USD 300 billion annually worldwide. * Over 85% of disaster-related deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries. 🇮🇳 Climate Change – India Specific Data Emissions & Responsibility * India is the 3rd largest emitter in absolute terms. * Contributes <4% of historical cumulative emissions despite hosting ~18% of world population. * India’s emissions intensity of GDP reduced by ~33% between 2005 and 2019. Vulnerability * India ranks among the top 10 most climate-vulnerable countries. * 50%+ agriculture is rain-fed and highly climate-sensitive. * Over 600 million Indians face high to extreme water stress. * Heatwaves cause thousands of deaths annually and reduce labour productivity. Agriculture & Food Security * Climate change may reduce India’s crop yields by 10–25% by mid-century. * Wheat yields drop sharply with temperatures above 34°C during grain filling. * Rising temperatures and erratic rainfall threaten food prices and farmer incomes. Coastal & Urban Risk * 7,500 km coastline vulnerable to sea-level rise and cyclones. * Cities like Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata face high flood risk. * Urban flooding events have increased sharply in the last decade. 🌱 Climate Action & Targets Global * To limit warming to 1.5°C, global emissions must fall by ~43% by 2030 (from 2019 levels). * Net-zero target timelines: * EU, USA: 2050 * China: 2060 * India: 2070 India’s Commitments * Reduce emissions intensity of GDP by 45% by 2030 (from 2005 levels). * Achieve 50% of installed electricity capacity from non-fossil sources by 2030. * Installed renewable energy capacity (2024): ~180 GW (solar, wind, hydro). * Target: 500 GW non-fossil capacity by 2030. ⚠️ Key Gaps & Challenges (Data-Based) * Global emissions still rising, not declining fast enough. * Climate finance gap: developing countries need USD 1–1.3 trillion annually by 2030; current flows far lower. * Adaptation funding accounts for <25% of total climate finance. * Loss & Damage costs for vulnerable countries may reach USD 400–500 billion annually by 2030. ONE-LINE DATA SUMMARY * 1.2°C warming | 420 ppm CO₂ | 59 bn tonnes emissions | 300 bn USD annual losses — defining today’s climate crisis.
