PAPER-III
General ability test:
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.
