✅Gs-2 : Judiciary- Arbitration
✅Gs-3 : Mobilization of resources/Economic growth- Ease of doing business
🔰Q) Critically examine the challenges faced by the Indian arbitration ecosystem and suggest measures to enhance the quality of arbitration outcomes.
🅾️The quality of any dispute resolution system depends not just on its rules but on the specialized human minds running it.If you want a world-class system, build world-class humans first, not just world-class rules
⚜️Assumption: A retired judge is automatically a good arbitrator → leads to court-like mindset in arbitration.Arbitrators are technically sound but not commercially agile or internationally relevant.
🅾️What is the real solution?-Treat arbitrators as a specialized professional class, not just ex-judges. Build a diverse, trained pool — lawyers, domain experts (finance, tech, engineering), dispute resolution specialists.

✅Gs-3 : Pollution- Solid waste
🅾️Problem :
⚜️1. Underreporting: Plastic waste data in India grossly underestimates actual volumes.
⚜️2. Infrastructure Deficit: Absence of proper Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs), open burning, and lack of segregation highlight poor systemic preparedness.
⚜️3. Inadequate Methodology: Central/State Pollution Control Boards rely on outdated/incomplete reporting mechanisms.
🅾️Solutions : We read about them in this article- Click here
⚠️Q) Discuss the significance of including the informal waste and recovery sector (IWRS) in the formulation of the Global Plastics Treaty. How can this inclusion ensure environmental sustainability and social justice? Illustrate your answer with examples from international and Indian contexts.- Click here

Even if you’re an avid reader, success in essay depends on aligning with UPSC’s demand. One student, despite limited prep time post-graduation, cleared Mains by mastering structure. Knowledge gaps can be bridged if the right skills are in place.
