Hello

I am guessing that it's about upsc civil services examination.

Yes, you can definitely write your GS paper answers in English even if you have chosen Hindi literature as your optional paper, being a language subject you will have to write your Hindi literature optional paper answers in Hindi .

This is because,

The UPSC Prelims and Mains examination question paper are set in both English and Hindi except the language papers -A and B in mains examination while prelims examination is objective, Mains examination is subjective and you have the option to write your  answers in English  or in any one of the Eighth Schedule languages .

So, beside English , you have the option to write answers in the language included

in the Eighth Schedule to the Constitution which consists of  22 languages  listed below:-

-) Assamese

-) Bengali

-) Gujarati

-) Hindi

-) Kannada

-) Kashmiri

-) Konkani

-) Malayalam

-) Manipuri

-) Marathi

-) Nepali

-) Odia

-) Punjabi

-) Sanskrit

-) Sindhi

-) Tamil

-) Telugu

-) Urdu

-) Bodo

-) Dogri

-) Maithili

-) Santhali

To help you for further, here's a brief of UPSC examination pattern

UPSC civil services examination  has 3 stages listed below :-

*prelims exam :- it is objective paper and is of qualifying nature , so you just  need to at least qualify it to be eligible for mains examination, the score /marks obtained by you in your prelims examination is not added up or used in your final merit. Your prelims exam consist of 2 papers: -

-) general studies 1

-) general studies II ( csat )

You get 2 hours for each paper

*Mains exam. :- it is descriptive /written examination . There are a total of 9 papers  which are listed below:-

-) paper A :- compulsory indian language.

-) paper B :- english

-) essay

-) general studies I

-) general studies II

-) general studies III

-) general studies IV

-) optional I

-) optional II

The compulsory indian language and english are qualifying in nature . You just need to qualify them. The marks obtained by you in these two papers will not be counted towards merit list.

*Interview :- After qualifying mains, you have to go through interview round, and it is more of test of your personality rather than knowledge.

Hello Ekta,

I would like to tell you that, Yes! Now UPSC provides options to write GS and Optional papers in different mediums (Since 2018). If you choose to write GS and Essay papers in Hindi and Optional Paper in English you can do so.

But point to be noted here is, If you choose to write GS and Essay papers in English then you have to write Optional papers also in English. It means, given the technical/subject specific terminology in optional, you are given opportunity to write it in English while writing GS papers in your fluent or compatible language.

You will get these option while filling the application form for prelim. UPSC ask optional subject and medium both for GS & Essay papers and Optional subject separately in the preliminary stage itself. So, you get sufficient time to get yourself ready and mater in the chosen language.

Further, If you write your GS papers in English medium and want to choose Hindi for interviews that option is also available. But that is not vice versa, that is if your medium for mains is Hindi/regional languages, you can not opt English for Interview.

So, Go ahead without any hesitation or concern if you are more comfortable for Optional to write in English and confident for GS and Essay papers to write in Hindi or any other regional languages (VIII Schedule languages).

Hope this helps,

All the best!
