[Download] Biodiversity and Environment Study-material for Free via National Open School for CSAT IAS Exam

  • Yes, this is totally free material in PDF format. Nothing piracy, Totally Legal.
  • It is provided by National Open School, Senior Secondary Board. (NCERT kinda thing)
  • I would suggest you use Foxit PDF reader to read them, because it allows you to mark and highlight important lines. Adobe PDF reader doesn’t have the utility.

      ya but download size of adobe reader is way bigger than foxit. that’s why foxit recommended if one doesn’t have pdf reader.

    Good Job Mrunal. Thank you. Add a disclaimer everywhere that all the posts you do only “supplement” the preparation and not in entirety. I’ve had couple of friends who only read your web site and roll their hands off due to false belief :-)

      there is no single comprehensive and exhaustive book / material for EnB theory so you’re better off going through both of them.
