Key Points:
- It lasted for around 30 minutes
- Rajni Razdan mam left her seat for 2 minutes to do some work while one of the member was asking Q
- She was asking these Kitchen Garden Questions from everyone in our interview group
- I don’t know why the third member only asked 1 question
- It was very cordial except the last member kept harping on the point that IAS is a very tough job and there are various kinds of challenges and asked me at least 3-4 times and if I would be able to stand all that pressure.
