Exam Strategy

UPSC tests map-based identification of coal fields, thermal power plant locations, and major hydro-electric projects across Indian states. Questions often pair energy resources with their geographic distribution and state-specific production data. Common pitfall: confusing coal basin locations or mixing up hydro project names with their river systems and states.
