So my question is, if there are any members who have already attempted the CSS or have any experience of it, can someone write objective history in CSS? I mean what if a person chooses to write the actual history instead of what we are hammered into our heads during our formal education? Is it taken on its merit, or is the official version inevitably supported?

Notwithstanding the obscurantism of narrow syllabus, it must be said that the objective treatment of history increasingly finds greater appreciation in CSS. Hence, you don't have to invent any ideological bases and religious motives behind the many Muslim conquests of India. In fact, a holistic, and almost a sociological, understanding of historical events is prerequisite to fetch good marks, a paradigm shift from the old simplistic generalizations and binary reductions.
