Those who prepare themselves for some of the aforesaid competitive

and international issues, and for this purpose they are on the lookout of a
single source for obtaining all the relevant information. Contemporary
Studies Backgrounder is meant for them.
CSB highlights current issues on a variety of subjects, broad in scope and
concise and informative in content.
CSB should serve as an inseparable companion for readers who are
intelligent, who desire to improve their knowledge and who are always
anxious to be counted among the multi-faceted personalities.
A regular study of CSB will keep readers updated on important problems and
help them crystallize their own perspectives of issues of national and
international significance. This exercise will greatly help them in writing
ESSAYS on various topics for their examinations. A study of this material
will also widen their horizon and enhance their ability to look at national
and global issues objectively. Readers of CSB will always have an edge over
others.
CSB will focus on a large number of select broad topics/subjects mentioned
below. We need hardly add (and you will agree with us) that an individual
effort is not feasible, financially or physically, to match this gigantic
academic exercise. On the other hand, our team will explore every useful
material and bring it to your threshold with a soft knock.
An efficient and experienced team of staff (headed by an editor) works for
the entire stupendous task, gathering and analyzing material from about
twenty-five different sources accessible in India and abroad.

in many respects an enviable personality to be admired at. Therefore, join
