Recently, Madhav Tiger Reserve in Madhya Pradesh was designated as India’s 58th Tiger Reserve. This is an important news item from a current affairs perspective.

Everyone advises aspirants to learn from PYQs (Previous Year Questions), but few explain how to do so effectively. PYQs provide a structured approach to analyze any topic by offering key dimensions to focus on.

For instance, after reviewing more than 50+ questions from various exams, I identified the following potential dimensions for tiger reserve-related questions. These dimensions can serve as a template to study National Parks, Tiger Reserves, Wildlife Sanctuaries, and Biosphere Reserves:

1. Location of the Tiger Reserve (State)

2. Important river(s) flowing through the reserve

3. Association with a Biosphere Reserve or National Park

4. Geographical positioning of the tiger reserve (North-South or East-West)

5. Major conservation achievements, such as Tx2 (doubling the tiger population) or its role in Project Tiger

6. Significant conservation efforts, such as M-STRIPES (asked in UPSC CSE 2017)

7. Any important mascot or species for which the reserve is known

8. UNESCO recognition or any recent significant increase or decrease in tiger population

By systematically using these dimensions, one can effectively prepare for environment and biodiversity-related topics for prelims exams.
