#decolonization
@nikhilhistoryculture

This year, I feel the topic of decolonization is very important. For two reasons - the Queen is now dead, she was the head of Commonwealth for so long. More importantly, the prime minister has given the call for Pancha-Prana during his 15th August speech which included "Get rid of any signs of slavery" by which he meant mental and cultural decolonization.

Moreover, disintegration of USSR was nothing but the final phase of political decolonization in the previous century and recently its architect, Gorbachev, has passed away.

Decolonization as a topic is important everywhere, in Essay, in GS and also in Optional. Questions could be thematic, cause-consequence type or specific to individual nations.

Prepare that thoroughly. The best source for this is still Arjun Dev NCERT. Revise it from there. Additionally, I am attaching a short PDF for value addition. These 5-6 pages will definitely provide you rich content and requisite depth of analysis.
