Am well aware that these ques has been posted earlier on BTG N other forums. But still i have posted these ques here then there must be some specific reason for that.
People couldn't reach on consensus whenever these ques were put earlier. So i just collected them n put under one thread so that more emphasis could be put once more on these ques. And this is why i haven't put OA.
Last but not least, plz don't put such provocative msg. I do things always with a careful thought.
If u find some problems on my thread , u can always skip that.
