Sometimes I think you are repeating question or moving around the bush unnecessarily.But good job.
Dear anonymous friend,
The moment you start feeling that most of the questions in this blog are being repeated, you should stop following this blog. because it can be just assured that you are a success in your examination.I dont know how could I repeat , when the monetary policy is just out on 29.1.2010
great reply Admin .... u said it rightly and very prudently ...i think it is imp to reply such ways to those who waste their as well as our time by talking or writing such nonsense and absurd things as their comment...which bear no meaning
thanks sir,
repeating question means its for revision what we have done before to make confirm that now have i right answer or not? so, the bottom line is the work is superb, we oblige you
love you
