Hi Shivani,
Though there are various books for UPSC GS preparation. But first, your focus should be on completing the basic NCERTs. Once you are done with that, focus on the mentioned books:
History of Modern India Bipan Chandra (History)
Indias Struggle For Independence Bipan Chandra (History)
History Of Medieval India Satish Chandra (History)
Indian Art and Culture Nitin Singhania (Culture)
Geography of India Majid Husain (Geography)
Oxford School Atlas Oxford (Geography)
Indian Polity for Civil Services Examinations M. Laxmikanth (Polity)
Indian Economy Ramesh Singh. (Economy) or Mrunal Video Lectures
Economic Survey (Economy)
Science and Tech

Hi Anchal,
Rather than an option, your focus should be on your interest apart from civil services. Try to focus on the areas/subjects which you have an interest in and that will pave way for your career goal. Though some of the popular options are:
B.Sc from any good university, and later on go for specialization courses
BBA/BBM and later on MBA
B.A. courses can also be helpful, as a lot of syllabus of civil services exam would be covered in your graduation years. Plus, later on, you can go for NET/JRF exams for professorship positions.

Yes, you are able to apply in competitive exams like UPSC. The only condition is, that you should fulfill all the criteria of exam. Only being pass is not the case, cutoff is little higher

There is huge difference between both. In BA. Programme, you will get 4 arts subject like Hindi, English, Economic etc. in each semester. But, in political science (Hons.), you will get all subjects related to politics. These subjects can be Indian politics, foreign politics etc.

I think you can't do it because for UPSC exams, graduation is compulsory.
