Hope you found it helpful. If you have any further queries feel free to post it here!!

Hi

You can choose any subject or course  of your choice based on your interest for your graduation.

This is because,

to be eligible for UPSC  examination there is no compulsion to be a graduate in a particular subject, all you need to be eligible is that you should be a graduate in any discipline and 21- 32 years old  , so you are free to do 10+2 and graduation in any subject.You can check upsc eligibility criteria at https://competition.careers360.com/articles/upsc-ias-eligibility-criteria/amp

So you can choose any discipline of your interest, but yes if you choose BA

then

choosing BA can be really helpful for your UPSC  examination, this is because in Arts you will be learning subjects like history , polity etc which are a part of the UPSC syllabus so it will help you in your upsc examination
