Who we are, why we built this, and how the material on this site is put together.
Civils Marg is a free, exam-oriented study platform built for aspirants preparing for the UPSC Civil Services Examination, the EPFO Recruitment Test, and the APPSC and TSPSC state-level exams. The name itself means "the path of the civil servant" — the idea is to give aspirants a single, organised road through subjects, current affairs, previous year questions and test practice, instead of scattered material across a dozen different sources.
Everything on this site — subject notes, revision material, current affairs coverage, PYQ banks and test series — is organised exam-wise and topic-wise, so you can go straight to what you need instead of hunting for it.
Civils Marg is maintained by a small team of civil services aspirants and educators who have been through this preparation journey themselves. We are not a large coaching institute — this is a self-driven, aspirant-run effort, built and updated by people who understand what the exam actually demands, because we've sat on the same side of the table as you.
To make high-quality, exam-focused preparation material freely accessible to every civil services aspirant, regardless of their location, background or ability to pay for expensive coaching.
Each topic on Civils Marg is prepared by first mapping it against the official syllabus for that exam, then researching it across standard reference books, government sources (PIB, ministry websites, official reports), and previous year question trends to see what has actually been asked and how. The material is then written out in our own words, structured under clear headings, and trimmed down to what is actually exam-relevant rather than reproduced wholesale from any single source.
Notes go through an internal review pass for factual accuracy and clarity before they're published, and are revised over time as syllabi, schemes or facts change — this is treated as a living resource, not a one-time upload.
