Anuj Agnihotri, from Chittorgarh, Rajasthan, completed his MBBS from AIIMS Jodhpur before choosing to serve the nation through civil services. He secured a total of 1071 marks (Written 867, Interview 204) with Medical Science as his optional subject, and has become an inspiration for lakhs of UPSC aspirants across the country. In this clip, Dr. Mrunal Patel asks Anuj Agnihotri directly: how did you approach current affairs for UPSC? The answer is candid, specific, and goes against what most coaching centres advise. Anuj Agnihotri makes one thing absolutely clear: no current affairs magazine compilation was used. He tried it once or twice, but the information overload made sustained reading impossible. Sitting with thick monthly compilations from multiple sources was pulling him away from the actual preparation. He dropped it entirely and never looked back. Instead, the primary current affairs source was a single newspaper: Indian Express, read daily for five years. The Hindu was not used at all. The reasoning is practical. Indian Express gives diverse subject coverage relevant to Prelims, to all four GS papers in Mains, and even to the Personality Test interview round. Consistent daily reading over five years built a depth of awareness that a monthly compilation simply cannot replicate. Newspaper reading was kept efficient, roughly 60 to 70 minutes per day. Importantly, Anuj Agnihotri did not maintain a separate current affairs notebook. No dedicated diary, no daily notes extracted purely from the newspaper. This is worth pausing on, because most aspirants do exactly the opposite. The method that replaced separate note-taking was direct integration. Whenever a recent development or news item appeared important, Anuj would locate the relevant topic inside his existing subject-wise study material, whether economics, governance, or polity, and add that information there as an annotation. Current affairs did not live in its own silo. It was embedded into static notes. This is the central insight from this clip. Anuj Agnihotri explicitly says that most UPSC questions today are linkage-based. A recent development is taken, connected to a static concept, and a question is constructed around that connection. If your current affairs notes and your static notes are separate, you will study both but fail to connect them at the right moment in the exam hall. For topics where newspaper coverage felt incomplete, he would go and read about that specific development separately. The interview clip also confirms that Anuj Agnihotri relied significantly on Indian Express because of its role in the UPSC interview round. Having genuinely read a quality newspaper daily for years, he could engage authentically with the interview board, not just recite bullet points. For aspirants watching this: pick one good newspaper, read it well every day, skip the monthly compilations, do not maintain a separate current affairs register, annotate your existing subject notes directly with current additions, and build the static-current linkage consciously as part of your regular study flow. This is what worked for UPSC AIR 1 2025. This interview is part of Dr. Mrunal Patel's ongoing effort to bring exam-relevant, authentic preparation insights to UPSC aspirants across India.
