    Hi Sirjee,
    I salute the kind of effort that you are putting in to assist budding individuals shine in their life. Its a noble profession that you have undertaken.
    I would like to make only one request to you. I have encountered a lot of questions regarding recent policies and announcements of the Reserve Bank of India in Bank PO exams. Those sort of questions are very lengthy as compared to other objective ones and the options that are provided are pretty confusing as well. it would be really nice of you if you could post such similar questions in this esteemed site of yours so that we can all benefit from it.
