This book from TEJ Civils Edtech is a Hindi medium (हिन्दी माध्यम) title by Neelam Ma'am, who holds UGC NET and has faced three RAS interviews, covering Vishwa Bhugol (विश्व भूगोल) — world geography — for the RAS Preliminary examination. It is written as per the new syllabus, and this is the first edition.
World geography is a section candidates habitually mishandle in RAS. It carries fewer marks than Rajasthan or Indian geography, so it gets postponed; then, when it is finally taken up, the candidate reaches for a general geography textbook or NCERT and finds a subject far larger than the paper requires. The result is either weeks lost or the section abandoned. A book scoped specifically to RAS Prelims fixes that — the four features stated on the cover are all about scope and level: based on all authentic books, exam-oriented and precise material, conceptual explanation, and an RAS preliminary examination focused approach.
The conceptual explanation point deserves emphasis. World geography questions in RPSC are not purely factual — they turn on why a climate type occurs where it does, how ocean currents affect adjoining coasts, why particular crops belong to particular latitudes, how landforms relate to plate movement. A candidate who has memorised lists without the reasoning cannot handle a question phrased slightly differently from the one they revised. Coverage runs across the earth's structure and interior, landforms and geomorphic processes, atmosphere and climate types, oceans and ocean currents, world natural vegetation and biomes, world agriculture and industries, minerals and resources, population and the world map. The author's own examination record grounds the level at what RAS actually asks. The whole book is written in Hindi in the Devanagari script.

TEJ Civils Edtech द्वारा प्रकाशित नीलम मैम (UGC NET, 3 RAS साक्षात्कार) की 'विश्व भूगोल — For RAS Prelims' का यह प्रथम संस्करण नए सिलेबस के अनुसार तैयार किया गया है। RAS में विश्व भूगोल वह खंड है जिसे अभ्यर्थी प्रायः ग़लत ढंग से पढ़ते हैं — इसके अंक राजस्थान अथवा भारत के भूगोल की तुलना में कम होते हैं, अतः इसे टाल दिया जाता है, और जब पढ़ा जाता है तो सामान्य भूगोल की पुस्तक अथवा NCERT से पढ़ने पर विषय परीक्षा की आवश्यकता से कहीं अधिक विस्तृत निकलता है। परिणामस्वरूप या तो सप्ताहों का समय व्यर्थ जाता है या खंड छोड़ ही दिया जाता है। यह पुस्तक RAS प्रारंभिक परीक्षा हेतु ही तैयार की गई है — सभी प्रामाणिक पुस्तकों पर आधारित, परीक्षा उन्मुख एवं सटीक सामग्री, संकल्पनात्मक व्याख्या तथा RAS प्रारंभिक परीक्षा केंद्रित दृष्टिकोण इसकी प्रमुख विशेषताएँ हैं। संकल्पनात्मक व्याख्या इसलिए महत्त्वपूर्ण है क्योंकि RPSC के प्रश्न केवल तथ्यात्मक नहीं होते — जलवायु प्रकारों की स्थिति, महासागरीय धाराओं का प्रभाव, फ़सलों एवं अक्षांशों का संबंध तथा स्थलरूपों की उत्पत्ति जैसे प्रश्न कारण समझे बिना हल नहीं होते। ध्यान दें: यह पुस्तक पूर्णतः हिन्दी भाषा एवं देवनागरी लिपि में है।
