The Initiative

-

Dear friends,

I wrote a book when I was 13 years old. It got published in 2011. Titled 'The Initiative', it was a book about losers getting superpowers and saving the planet. It is a piece of naive teenage lit but to my surprise it is selling on amazon for over 40k rupees per copy (or just 100 bucks for kindle version). 


Well, that just seems unfair (and stupid, but mostly unfair). Perhaps the publisher is selling it as vintage stock. Or maybe it's just a capitalistic joke played on the online marketplace.

Anyways, I have about 30 odd copies with me from the original 2011 stock and it would be an honour to send them over to some interested minds for free.


If you'd like to receive a signed paperback of the book, let me know by filling this form (URL below):

Vikram sir, I'm a huge fan from Chitral, Pakistan, and I read your book 'Essay PTO'. I'm waiting for you to share your recent publication, 'Shark Chutney on Besan Ka Halwa', as well. I tried, but the link for the initiative isn't working. Oops. Anyway, have a great life.

"ESSAY KAISE? " by Vikram Grewal AIR 51 UPSC CSE 2018

'Brevity is the soul of wit,' they say. UPSC loves brevity. And if you can pour a little wit in it, their day is made. Before we delve into the ESSAY paper for Civil Services Exam, I would just like to point out that this article is going to be brief. I won't really instruct or implore you to follow any guidelines or apply any 'tips and tricks', my dear friend. *Because essay is a matter of the heart and mind. And every pair is as beautiful and insightful. So we'll talk about the 'soul' instead. (*Note: never start a sentence with 'because'- a teacher once told me.) (**Also note: question all advice- nothing is sacred. THIS PAPER gives you room to experiment.)    I scored 161 Marks in Essay this year. Although I respect the fact that without these marks my rank would've been 'not-so-good', yet I view it as a considerably minor issue when compared to the amount of fun I had while writing those 2 essays. (Or in fact most o...

Here I present to you the result of my efforts at making notes for Mains 2018. They are quite crisp and laden with Keywords. I have treated all GS papers as one comprehensive paper. Also, I have adopted a strictly 'One issue, One page' policy to enhance the effectiveness of answer writing. Apologies in advance if you find them unorganized or don't like my handwriting (or both). But well, that's how dynamic things are nowadays. What to do, dear friend? What to do!  Best wishes, V.G. There is an INDEX attached below- to scroll to specific topics.
