indicative.
There is no hard and fast rule - you can use
your own discretion while choosing books according
to your plan.

And I have not mentioned NCERTs ONLY but along
with NCERTs, there are some other state board
books also.
So, in short, you can add or subtract you
can do that.
Use your own discretion.
So without wasting a time let us begin -
For Art and Culture - read Fine arts Class
Xi NCERT and last two chapters of crafts and
traditions.
For Ancient and Medieval India read Tamilnadu
Board History Books.
These books are available in PDF format for
free just search over google and you will
get the PDF copy or I will provide the link
below.
For Modern India - you can read Modern Indian
History by Bipin Chandra which also goes by
the name of the old NCERT.
If this book is not available in the local
book shop you can buy this book online from
amazon.
Apart from that book, you can read Class XII
New NCERT i.e.
Themes in Indian History Part 3 specifically
the topic on Gandhiji.
For Geography, you have to read Class XI and
XII NCERTs there are total 4 NCERTs If you
are finding it difficult to understand Geography
then you can start with Class VI NCERT and
read all NCERTs up to Class X and then read
+1 and +2 NCERTs.
Now, these NCERTs will cover a significant
portion of agriculture and environment also.
For Indian Polity you can read Political Theory
and Indian Constitution at Work, both are
Class XI NCERTs for political science
For International Relations and Indian Foreign
Policy, you can read Contemporary World Politics
and Politics in India Since Independence.
This NCERT is also useful in Post Independent
History of India.
For Economy NCERT – Class 11 (Indian Economic
Development) Class 12 – Macroeconomics.
For Environment read Biology class XIIth Last
four chapters
For Society and social issues, there are 3
NCERTs that you have to read NCERT: Class
12 - Indian Society NCERT: Class 12 - Social
Change and Development in India.
And understanding Indian society.
For science, you can read Class 9th and 10th
NCERT.
But read them after you finish all the above
NCERTs.
Keep them at last.
For world history, I am also writing blog
posts on www.indiashastra.com which are free
and these blogs are notes from toppers class
notes and old NCERT and random google search.
If you do not wish to read blogs then go for
the Old NCERT - World History (Arjun Dev)
Now after reading all the above NCERTs, if
you are left with some time then the first
thing is to re-read these same books once
again.
You have to cover all these books before November
15.
Now do not ask any doubts and start reading
them.
There will be no video till 15th November.
Also, remember that along with all these NCERTs
you have to finish 50-60% of optional and
also you have to read daily newspaper.
As discussed in the last video this is your
checklist and time will pass just like that.
Now some people do not like free motivation
or in local language bolbacchan so they can
leave now.
unka time aagaya he, Wo nikal sikate hai,
And those people who wish to listen more can
stay here.
And I love both types of these people no hard
feelings.
I want to tell you that don’t go for shortcuts
and buy any gist of NCERT or that kind of
things read these books only.
Also, don’t go for watching videos on NCERTs
like the one that I made on Geography.
Yes, these videos can help and great to watch
but you forget that these videos are supplementary.
You can watch them after you finish reading
your books.
First, read your stuff then watch those videos.
Solely depending on them is not the right
option.
So Don’t add any shortcut material in your
list.
If you are doing this mistake then you will
ask the same doubts in next year to some another
educator like which NCERT should I read, how
to read and all.
It is better to utilise this time and opportunity
till 15th November and those who will finish
this task and this checklist can send their
checklist pic on Instagram on 14th November.
Amazingly It coincides with Children Day.
Send the checklist and you will get a surprise
gift from me.
Don’t go for shortcuts.
Increase the number of hours if you had to
but do not search for alternatives, you will
sacrifice your attempt if you make such silly
mistakes.
You should remember that most dear thing that
you have with you is your attempt.
So don’t waste it.
The equation is quite simple - the one who
will put extra effort and finish the tasks
without going for shortcuts will find his
name where it matters the most.
Have a ruthless determination and focus on
things that you have to do.
