Click here to download my solutions to 2013 Mains General Studies Paper 3.
Disclaimer
1. The below answers have been reproduced purely from my memory of what I wrote. They may not be accurate. All discussions are welcome :-)
2. All answers were written more or less in the same sub-heading wise and point wise format. But the exact content may not be the same and I may be putting some additional points here or missing out some points written in the exam due to the gap between writing this and writing the exam.
3. 60 marks worth out of 250 was left/wrong/very poorly attempted.
4. I have not been able to garner enough will power to put solutions to last few questions here. Will try to do so in due course.

Sir in case u r not able to put up the whole ethics paper’s solution here, then atleast kindly put 1 solved case study here.
In mains, in case study questions, i myself did this… explained the situation first,… then listed possible options with thr pros n cons,… n finally chose 1 option as the best n gave justification for it. Is this approach fine?
Did u use any scientific words of ethics (like teleological, utilitarian, deontological etc) in ur case study answers?

Approach is fine. Yes I used such words. Can’t recall the case study ans after so many months but pls refer to my vision ias answers for case study. Followed a similar approach in mains
