  • Israel-Palestine War: Do you think Israel should stop the war? Yes/No. Give reasons.
    • I said Israel should stop, and as I begin to give reasons.
    • Members became a bit aggressive and hostile, and started interjecting and cross questioning without allowing me to speak.

Member-04
  • Public policy: What is public interest and what is public good.
    • Haryana is my home state, and I have worked in Andhra Pradesh.
  • Asked me to compare the administration and governance between the two.
    • Is there anything that Haryana can learn from AP?
  • While smiling brought back the discussion to the Israel-Palestine conflict and asked me to bring out 2 differences between Ukraine-Russia and the Israel-Palestine war.
    • 1-2 questions he asked, not able to recall.
  • Chairperson: You think we missed something important do tell us.
    • Than said thank you may go now.
Overall Experience: 

  • The interview was a little bit random as the opening Question was from Modern history and many keywords from the DAF were not covered.
  • Except for one member, the board was very cordial and allowed me time and space to complete my answers peacefully.
