Civil Services Club in my views
A group that is devoted to a single cause with a single minded devotion is always expected to do wonders in attaining the goal of its existence. The expectations were similar and  it would not be wrong to conclude that the Civil Services Club(CSC) was never far from living  up to these expectations. The deep vista opened up by the club concerning matters of Current Affairs and General Studies as a whole ,was splendid ,in terms of results  it achieved. CSC claims an inseparable connection of members with a record success close to cent percent. Experience has time as its dimension and connectedness as well. CSC boasts its members were learning when it was established ,are still enthusiastic about  Civils and will always continue to do so because they know that this about serving the society .CSC’s  approach has always been philanthropic and altruistic ,the spirit of competition being limited to the exam only. The Club  set up to nurture the skills and garner up courage  to face up to bigger problems in life  ,functioned for us as a nursery to hone our skills. It made us realize where we were lacking and what was significant in each of us  ,which could be highlighted on a larger platform, in a congenial atmosphere.  With the intention to expand our sphere of actions ,we are opening ourselves to you,to join the group as protégés cum colleagues ,to foster the ambience  of  mutual learning in the best possible way ,that is, the way of Club.
May God bless us all!!
