R.B.I.S.B. (MANAGER ELECTRICAL) P.Y. 2014


Instructions

Answer any five questions. All questions carry equal marks.



Answers must be written either in English or in Hindi. However, all the questions should be answered in one language only. Answer-books written partly in English and partly in Hindi will not be evaluated.



Each question should be answered on new page and the question number must be written on the top in left margin.



The answers of parts of the same question, if any, should be written together. In other words, the answer of another questions should not be written in-between the Parts of a question.



The Name, Roll No. and other entries should be written in the answer-scripts at the specified places only and these should not be written anywhere else in the answer script and supplements.



Candidate should use only Blue or Black ink pen to write the answers.



Answers will be evaluated on the basis of logic, brevity and clarity in exposition.



Marks will be deducted for illegible hand-writing.



Use of non-programmable electronic calculator/log table is permitted.
