ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Perfection was the watchword we had in mind when we started working on this project. However people generally agree that man can only strive to approach excellence but never actually achieve it. Exquisite perfection is rather a trait of God, and by His grace, we have tried very hard to make this report an excellent one. We would like to thank MR. ATHER QADRI her time, assistance, guidance & instructions; he gave to us in the friendliest manner through out this project. This project will surely help us in our professional life. Once again, we are thankful to all the people who have been involved in this project directly or indirectly.
