Thanks for the content. Please correct the spelling of Grammar in the Table. It’s written as “Grammer” there.
Thanks Ramya. Updated.
Please clearify the doubt regarding wether functional English has been made a mandatory subject with 2 credit points from July 2018 onwards? It is going to face extensive problems especially due to acute shortage of infrastructure as well as as staff members to conduct language labs. Is my fear.Hope very clear cut idea on 19th.Still your reply is much awaited through email or here itself
