  1. Sir why you remove calcy.?…. it is too difficult to calculate interpolation or any rcc design ans….. at least you have to made vertual calcy as same as narmal calcy………also it take too much time…….

  2. Already civil engineering is a vast branch.

    Considering the transportation field the introduction of airport engineering and railway engineering will create
    more burden.

  3. sir why u have increased the syllabus for only civil engineering.
    this is injustice to us…..i request u that either u increase every branch syllabus
    or u decrease our syllabus….please

    • You keep on learning & preparing for it don’t take burden of syllabus. It is our need and improve our personality in particular profession.
      Thank-you
