This book from Connect Civils is an English medium (अंग्रेज़ी माध्यम) title covering science and technology (विज्ञान एवं प्रौद्योगिकी) for civil services examinations. It is prepared for UPSC, RAS and other RPSC examinations, and this is the new edition for 2026 with the latest 2026-27 current affairs included. Technology is the section where a candidate's notes go stale fastest. Missions launch, policies are announced, new systems enter service, and a question set in 2026 will draw on developments that did not exist when an older book went to press. That is the reason this edition leads with its currency: the standing concepts are covered alongside the recent developments a current paper will actually ask about, in one place, so a candidate is not stitching together a base book and a year's worth of magazine clippings. The subject range visible on the cover is the range of the paper — space and launch programmes, defence systems and missile technology, information technology and communication, artificial intelligence, high-speed transport, and the materials and biotechnology areas that increasingly appear in both prelims and mains. The presentation is built to the new examination pattern, which in practice means questions now test application and significance rather than definitions alone: what a technology does, why India is pursuing it, and what it changes. That framing serves the RAS Mains and UPSC Mains answer equally well, while the factual coverage supports the preliminary examination. The whole book is written in English in the Roman script.
