INDIAN POLITY BY M LAXMIKANT

indian polity is ma second book which im reading for the indian polity part in g.s fo civil service exam ma 1st book was 'our constitution' by subhash c khashyap after reading 'our consitution' ma expectation was modrate with this book before i started reading it. im not over with the book yet but from what i have read till now i can surely say i found this book better than 'our constitution' and when i say this im not critising our constituion' that is wonderful book too. but according to ma level, the language used in indian plity by m laxikanth is much more understandable as he has written this book in common language easily understanble for the non-law background student and one more feature what i liked about this book is that it give's in depth information under various heading in date-wise order and through easily understandable points which make one to make notes fluently out of it. everybody have thier veiw and this is mine for this book and i hope it will the reader to choose thier book wisely.thank you and ya one more thing flipkart service is awesum in every sence im a quit a regular customer of it now and i dont have to go to market to search for books and waste lot of precious time and time is very vital for the student preparing for civil services.

Beautifully written book

The book is written beautifully. A good selection for serious candidates. Best thing is that the book has been segregated in such a manner so as to make revision easy for students.. Also important points have been marked and tabulation and comparing of various topics are done in an impeccable manner.
