dear sir…powerpoint is not seen in the download segment…plz provide the link.i go through medifire but there was only earlier series not of this one.

Give me gs notes in pdf format pls
hello Sir
i have been following mrunal platform since 2012. The articles provided on different topics were very handy and helpful. i always found economics boring but your write ups made it interesting.
I plan to write UPSC now and saw the change on your website. there are no readymade notes but video lectures which are quite
informative.
However, one has to make their own notes now, earlier u reduced the burden by 75-80%.
So, Sir i request you that is it anyway possible to get those written notes again for every topic.(earlier they were available for free, which was an asset. i am ready to pay as well if the notes can be provided.)
Watching video is good but its time consuming for me as i have time constraints. please suggest.
