I research, write, and edit every page of Itihaaskar myself — no content team, no recycled coaching material. When you study History here, you’re learning from someone who has actually sat this exam and knows exactly what it rewards: structured like an engineer, detailed like a historian.
Why I built Itihaaskar
Hello, I’m Parveen Malik — the founder of Itihaaskar.com. When I was preparing, I wasted months on notes that were incomplete, outdated, or simply wrong. I had an engineering degree and a Master’s in History, and I still couldn’t find a single source I fully trusted. So I decided to build one.
My path has been a little unusual — an engineer who fell for History. That combination shapes everything I write: the engineering side gives the notes structure and logic, the History side gives them depth and nuance. Clearing JRF once can be luck; clearing it twice forces you to understand precisely what the exam actually rewards — and every page is filtered through that lens.
Here is what that means for you when you open these notes:
- PYQ-tagged throughout — you always know what the exam has actually asked.
- Mapped to the latest Code 06 syllabus — nothing missing, nothing padded.
- Available in Hindi and English — study in the language you think in.
- One honest, exam-tested system — not recycled coaching material, and priced so cost is never the reason a serious aspirant goes in underprepared.
Right now I offer UGC NET & JRF History Mastery Notes here on the site. UPSC and State Civil Services History Optional notes are coming soon — built with the same rigour.
