Public administration is one of the handsomely rewarded subject in UPSC and state PSC as well. Also, it is very well structured subject. You need to read it smartly and you are done. Also, history if chosen it will lead you to a plethora of information which will create a bit of problems in memorizing. Yet, public administration would satisfy your need as General studies in itself is vast enough even for mains. So, for the purpose of optional, you could have public administration.
