The UPSC conducts the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF) Assistant Commandant (AC) examination to recruit dedicated officers for India’s CAPFs. Paper 2—focusing on General Studies, Essay, and Comprehension—is a vital component, assessing analytical thinking, language proficiency, and writing skills.This book is thoughtfully designed to meet the specific demands of Paper 2, shaped by my experience with the exam. It offers a structured approach to essay writing, comprehension, précis, and effective communication. With curated essays on contemporary issues, model reports, summaries, and grammar exercises, each chapter progresses from concept clarity to examples, practice sets, and model answers.Whether you’re a beginner or a repeat aspirant, this book aims to be your trusted guide. It is dedicated to my father, Late Shri G. S. R. Tripathi (Retd. Judge), with support from my wife, Smt. Noopur Tripathi (IRAS), and insights from my brother, Shri S. Devesh Tripathi, Dy. Commandant, CISF (AIR-27, UPSC 2012).
