News reading for UPSC is one of the very important aspect for the preparation.
Though the time and attentiveness that is required shouldn't be compromised but what to read and what not to is more required.
The Hindu is by far the most recommended source,beyond that aspiring candidates may look upon :-
Yojana Magazine Press Information Bureau (PIB) PRS India Websites of various ministries
Press conferences and information regarding candidature, share market, blames on politicians and entertainment news is still of less importance.
