This document presents an in-depth, 100-themes Subject wise and topic -wise breakdown across all UPSC Mains papers — Essay, GS1, GS2, GS3, and GS4 (Ethics) — meticulously organized paper-wise, subject-wise, and theme-wise.
We have decoded:
• Frequency of each theme over the past 11 years (2013–2024)
• Years in which each theme was asked
• Bar-graph representations of the most repeated themes
• Detailed trend analysis, examiner patterns, and theme recurrence insights
