The Maharshi Dayanand University (MDU), Rohtak, authorities plan to launch a pioneering initiative to support the students aspiring to crack the civil services examinations. As part of the initiative, a dedicated corner for the students will be established at Swami Vivekananda Library that is located on the university campus.
The “civil services corner” will provide the aspirants with a comprehensive ecosystem for preparation. The students will get access to the extensive library resources of MDU, which include books, journals, reports and digital study material. A dedicated study space will be created to ensure aspirants can focus on their preparation without any disturbance. In addition, mock interviews will be organised to simulate the UPSC interview environment and to build confidence among the students.
