What is Polity? (Explained in Simple Words)

You do not need to read thick civil services books to pass this section. In simple words, Indian Polity is just the “Rulebook of India.” It tells us how our country is run, what our basic rights are, and what powers the Prime Minister or President holds. You can divide the whole syllabus into three easy parts:

Making of the Constitution: Read basic facts like who wrote it, how much time it took to make it, and from which countries we borrowed some important rules.
Fundamental Rights and Duties: This is the most asked topic! Just read what rights you have as a normal citizen (like the right to equality) and what your 11 basic duties are.
Important Posts & Parliament: Read about the minimum age, oath, and retirement of the President, Prime Minister, Governor, and Chief Minister. Also, read basic facts about the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.

If you focus on these three simple areas, Polity will become your most scoring subject!

5 Simple Tips to Prepare Polity for SSC Stenographer

You do not need to be a law student to score full marks in this topic. Just keep a cool head and follow these 5 easy tips:

Do Not Memorize All Articles: There are nearly 400 Articles. Do not try to learn all of them! Just memorize the Articles related to Fundamental Rights (12 to 35), Duties (51A), and the President (52 to 61).
Make a “Numbers” Chart: SSC loves asking about numbers. Make a small paper chart of minimum ages (Lok Sabha = 25, Rajya Sabha = 30, President = 35) and stick it on your wall.
Make an “Appointments” List: Write down who appoints whom and who gives the resignation letter to whom. (Example: The Prime Minister gives his resignation to the President).
Use Simple Books Only: Do not buy heavy UPSC books like M. Laxmikanth for the Stenographer exam. A simple summary book like Lucent’s GK is more than enough to get full marks.
Practice Previous Year Papers: The SSC board copies its GK questions all the time. Solve the previous year’s Polity questions of SSC Stenographer, CHSL, and MTS. You will start seeing the exact same questions repeating.
