Hello Sunil,

Here's the guidance regarding your query:

In the UPSC Mains Examination , you are allowed to write different papers in different languages as per the following rules:

  1. Essay and General Studies Papers (GS1 to GS4):

    • You can write these papers in English , Hindi, or any language listed in the 8th Schedule of the Indian Constitution.

    • Since you've mentioned English, you can write these papers in English.

  2. Optional Paper (Kannada Literature):

    • As Kannada is your chosen optional subject, you must write both Paper 1 and Paper 2 of Kannada Literature in the Kannada language .

  3. Language Flexibility:

    • UPSC allows candidates to use one language for some papers and another for others, as long as the rules are adhered to.

    • Therefore, it is completely fine to write Essay and GS papers in English and Optional Paper in Kannada .

      Note:

Make sure to choose the correct language while filling out the Detailed Application Form (DAF) for Mains. Best of luck with your preparation!
