NOTES FOR PAPER SETTER
The syllabus has been divided into three equal units. The question paper will contain four
SECTIONS. SECTION-A of 10 marks (compulsory question) will have 05 sub-parts. The
compulsory question must focus on main aspect of the subject.
The other three sections will have nine questions in all & each section will contain three
questions of 10 marks each. Students are required to attempt five questions in all from
SECTION-B to SECTION-D selecting at least one question from each section, but not more than
two.
