Civil Servant (IAS/PCS)

Since, you belong to Science stream but preferring Civil Services. So, I would recommend you to go for BA Hons History from any reputed university across India, since I am also a History graduate from University of Delhi, but not aspiring for Civil Services. Taking History will be very helpful, though you can take political Science as well. Other than this, It came to my mind, that a possible question can arise to you that being a Science student, Going arts will be inconvenient, I am sure it will be, but the fact is, For IAS, History is must, because if you won't take it in your main subject, the general studies aspect has History and General studies paper is must, So you have no option but to read History.
