General Ability Test

Section-III (for all JTO Branches)
The candidate's comprehension and understanding of General English shall be tested through simple exercises. Questions on
knowledge of current events and of such matter of everyday observation and experience in their scientific aspects as may be expected
of an educated person. Questions will also be included on events and developments in Telecommunications, History of India and
Geography. These will be of a nature, which can be answered without special study by an educated person.
