The challenges in basing answer keys for important topics in UPSC include the complexity of the syllabus and the subjective nature of answers. Various subjects require nuanced understanding and critical thinking. Additionally, the dynamic political and social context means that answer keys can become outdated quickly. Evaluators might also differ in their interpretation of responses, leading to inconsistency. Ensuring that answer keys are comprehensive, yet flexible enough to accommodate diverse perspectives, poses a significant challenge for UPSC examination authorities.
