Hi. This is urgent. I wanted to know what exactly is the syllabus for otba in economics and how to study for it.. By studying the study material of comparative development experience of india with its neighbours from meritnation will be enough? I cant really understand what to study in this regard.. Please help.. Hoping for a quick answer.

Dear Student,

In the OTBA section, CBSE releases two themes every year from which you will be asked two questions of 5 marks each. However, you don't need to worry at all as we have provided the theme and a few sets of sample questions on our website. The topics for this year include:

a. One Child Policy of China
b. Role of FDI in Economic Development

You can go through the themes and the sample papers along with their solutions by clicking the link below:

https://www.meritnation.com/cbse/class11-commerce/otba/economics/indian-economic-development/1_13_16_442​

As far as OTBA is concerned, stick to the theme provided by the CBSE only as it will be enough for answering the questions.

In case you have any other doubts or questions, feel free to ask.

​All the best for your exams!
