The person behind the notes

Parveen Malik

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.

About Me

Why I built Itihaaskar

Hello, I’m Parveen Malik — the founder of Itihaaskar.com. When I was preparing for UGC NET History, I wasted months on notes that were incomplete, outdated, or simply wrong — recycled from the same two or three sources everyone shares. I couldn’t find a single source I fully trusted. So I decided to build one.

Qualifying JRF in History means understanding precisely what the exam actually rewards — not just what’s in the syllabus, but what actually gets asked, year after year. Every page here is filtered through that lens, cross-checked against the real Code 06 syllabus and hundreds of previous-year questions, not assembled from memory or someone else’s notes.

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.
  • Full syllabus in Hindi & English.
  • 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.
