Dear Akansha,

Your question is not clear .. but if you want to know the comparison between these three subjects , then here it is:

Political Science is the knowledge about the activity or working procedure of Government .We generally know that science means a systematically organized body of knowledge on a particular subject.  So, that's why political science is giving us a special systematic knowledge of Indian Politics and their history with its present .


On the other side ,

Psychology is a totally different subject . It basically gives us a deep concept of human behaviour and their emotions with mental stability .

Sociology , again a totally different topic with the above two subjects .It generally helps us to gain the analytical skills to view the society , environment and the relationship between human and society with a logical point of view.


So.. I hope you can understand that these three topics are important in their own field and in such case no comparison should be there as all of them are equally valuable degrees for every desired individuals .


let me know if any other query regarding this raises in your mind !


Best wishes !!
