Default Confusion regarding books

I have recently started preparing for geography. I have no previous background so wanted advice of the people who have knowledge of the subject.

Currently i have deblidge and Sarfaraz Bajwa for physical geography. Yesterday a friend of mine who previously appeared in CSS advised me to study from Strahler.

Can anyone please help me on this. Which book should i follow for preparation. I am new to the subject and really confused from where to prepare. I would really appreciate it

Is Sarfraz Bajwa's physical geography book enough for paper I. Secondly, I also heared from one of forum members that aforementioned Bajwa's book is copied from one of foreign writer's (Deb Lij or Stahler) book, but in easier language. Is it true?

Thank you for the reply. Language Alhamdulilah is not an issue.
My only concern is that geopgraphy papers since 2010 require a more thorough understanding. esp the MCQs are really tough.
I was given advise that instead of following just bajwa i must consult different books like strahler and deblij for different topics; like you have mentioned above.

So what is your advise in light of current paper pattern. Will Bajwa be enough or selective topics from different books is better option?

ohh you were asking about mcqs.ma apko 1 technical baat btati hun k traditional mcqs k lea ap dono books consult ker sakte ho/ past 10 years papers solve ker sakte ho,choice is yours.

wo jo ap new trend ki baat ker rahe ho to mere bhai ye new recent discoveries apko kisi book ma nhi milen ge,internet pe updated raho/news ma science news suna karo, jo new discovery hote ha FPSC wale zaroor mcqs ma poochte han.or ye books ma published hone tak outdated ho chuke hote han.

ma try karun ge k apko wo site btaon us pe sare new discoveries update ho jate han about geography,geology and enviromental science.

just wait ma jab free hun ge ma post ker dun ge ajkal ma synopsis banane ma busy hun.

@Ranjha M S yes
