2. Asiatic Society Library, Bombay

3. Delhi Public Library, Delhi

4.National Library, Calcutta.

        So please confirm about this details. 

Thank you Sir.

Dear Jadav

Please read the books available on subjects. It is very simple that you will put query here, people will reply, but please read the books try to get the answers by your own. If you are a library science professional, you should not be depended for such basic question.
If you want to become a player in this filed...try to give answers rather than the asking.

Just, it is my way of working. Don't take it personal please.

Respected Kumar Sir,

         Sorry for late to give you reply. I agree with your suggestion. And finally I got the answer of my own effords.

But there is querry in our field, very few books are available to give an Unique information. So please suggest something.

if any body ask question we have not to any objection. because some time our concept permantley cleared when we discuss. And Mr mukesh kumar fo kind your knowledge discussion method is the best method than reading books. its my personal views others may be differnt
