Dawn Newspaper, Jahangir world times and international journals are sufficient. You can also go through Encyclopaedia of GK published by JBD press. Reading reports of International crises Group will also help. You will find many of these terms within those reports.

Yes you can consult notes to have a know how of organizations but again you have to keep in touch with the latest news related to the organizations because you have to answer questions from current perspective. Same is the case with rest of the topics. You may consult notes to understand the origin and background of the issues but bacause you have to answer questions from current perspective, newspapers are far helpful than notes.
