I am not sure about physics, but surely you can combine maths with your humanities subject. If you have economics in your humanities subject then maths as an additional subject can definitely prove to be a boom for you. Knowledge of core mathematics is highly necessary for understanding the advance theorems of Marco-Micro economics. When it comes to the understanding the concept of consumers producer behaviours, price determination, revenue recognition, etc., you must have the knowledge of matrices, differentiation & integration, statistics and probability. These concepts help a lot while having an advanced and realistic knowledge of economics (as a part of humanities). So, in this way, we can relate the subjects of maths and economics. Here, physics may not help you much (since physics is the application of mathematics in the practical world), but it may help you to enhance your mathematical calculation skills. Hope this helps.
Best of luck.

If you are pursuing political science then you must be a UPSC aspirant. Political science course in itself is so vast that if you focus on it, you will not require any parallel course. But if you are aiming for UPSC then I would refer you some books that you should read that would increase your insight and at the same time prepare you for UPSC examinations. The first one is Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth and the second is India's Struggle for Independence by Bipin Chandra. The book Indian Polity is considered the bible for UPSC exams as there are approx 25 questions you will get in that exam from Indian Polity for sure. On the other hand, India's struggle for independence is also an important book which enlightens you about the facts and all the hard work India went through to attain independence. If you are a first-year student, I would recommend you to start taking general studies coaching from your second year.
If you do these things, you won't need any other parallel course while doing political science.
