Articles from the Indian Constitution are among the repeated topics asked in the GAT paper of the NDA exam. Generally, 3-4 Articles are asked every year in this paper. As you already know the GAT accounts for 600 marks in the NDA exam so this paper can provide you with valuable marks that help you to clear the cut-off of the NDA exam. But, GAT paper is very diverse and it is hard to decide which area to prepare well. The diverse nature of GAT paper also demands selective study because a candidate can not cover English, history, geography, polity, economics, science, and current affairs thoroughly. The same thing applies on the CDS exam also, General Knowledge Paper of the CDS exam is highly diverse and the difficulty is quite great. So, the General Knowledge paper of the CDS exam also requires selective study. In this article, we are going to provide a list of the most important articles of the Indian constitution for the NDA and CDS exams. These are only selected articles which means there is a high possibility that these articles of the Indian constitution can be asked in the upcoming NDA and CDS Exam.
