Civil Service Institute Pala (CSIP) pioneered the path for Keralites to excel in the Indian Civil Services through its Malayalam Optional programme. Since its inception in 2000, the Institute has successfully guided 25 batches of aspirants, with almost 274 students securing positions in the prestigious Civil Services. Notable achievers include Smt. Aswathy S. IAS, Smt. Anupama T.V. IAS, Smt. Haritha V. Kumar IAS, Sri Jyothis Mohan IRS, Sri Harikishore S. IAS, Dr. Alby John Varghese IAS, Dr. Renu Raj IAS, Dr. Dileesh Sasi IAS, Smt. Sameera S. IAS, Smt. Sikha Surendran IAS, Sri Arun K. Pavithran IPS, Sri Nidhin Raj P. IPS, Dr. Manjima P. IPS, Sri Anand Pyarelal IPS, etc. The Institute's dominance in mentoring students for Malayalam Optional is well-established and unparalleled, a testament to its exceptional faculty and guidance.

The Civil Services Mains Examination consists of nine papers and caries a total of 1750 marks. The last two papers are optional papers. The candidate may choose his optional paper from a long list of subjects. The list contains, in addition to most usual regular subjects, almost all the regional languages. It means that a candidate from Kerala can now offer her/his own mother tongue as the optional subject. The Malayalam language and its literature constitute in that case paper seven and eight, and they carry 250 marks each.

Either of the optional papers is divided into two sections and comprises six units. The syllabus deals mostly with the origin and development of the Malayalam language and literature, and the linguistic literary theories that emerged in each year. In paper two, the emphasis, is mostly on literature.

Acquisition of information on the prescribed topics alone can not help the candidates beyond a certain limit. What is important is to arrange the information in an orderly manner and present it in accordance with the stipulation regarding time and length limits.

At CSIP, we specialize in coaching students for Malayalam Optional, delivering unparalleled results that set us apart. Our classes are the most sought-after in the state, and we're proud of our legacy. Join us to experience the CSIP difference and pave your way to success in the Civil Services.

 

 


Student Testimonials

I needed something to boost my confidence. This institute really helped me because, with Sunil Sir, it wasn’t just a brief session like most prominent institutions offer. Instead, sessions lasted 3-4 hours, which allowed for a thorough approach. That really helped me focus on every detail and boosted my confidence.

I’m deeply grateful to Civil Service Institute Pala, where I began my Civil Service journey in 2023 with the PCM Full-time batch. Choosing Malayalam as my optional subject here was a great decision, thanks to the guidance of Baby Sir and Davis Sir. The institute’s calm atmosphere, excellent facilities, and supportive peer group also contributed significantly to my preparation.

A major motivation factor in my preparation journey or rather, what kept me rooted in this dream was the Pala Civil Service Institute. I joined here for the foundation course after completing my 10th grade. The classes were held on every second Saturday. The sessions by Arya R. Nair IRS and Jubin Sir were especially interesting.
