Samadhi Sthal Of Indian Leaders

For those who are seriously preparing for Government jobs and Bank jobs, one of the important sections which decide top ranks is GK. Comparing to other sections in competitive examinations conducted by various State Public Service commissions and UPSC, General Knowledge is vast. So, you will take a lot of time to master at it. However, by smart preparations, you can ensure a high score in the GK section. Learning the repeated questions and answers is one of them.

This post explains one of the most repeated parts in GK by PSC and IBPS tests. Resting Place ( Samadhi Sthal) of famous personalities in India is one of the most repeated questions in Government Job tests. You can expect questions related to buildings, constructions and real estate properties having relations with popular Indian leaders.
