Faculty review notes: This is one of the HC 3 (a)/(b)/(c) alternatives. The curriculum explicitly says Or; these are not three compulsory two-credit registrations. The curriculum overview says West North India, while this detailed title includes North West and Central India. Both are preserved; no approved title correction is assumed. No evaluation percentages are supplied in this syllabus. AGBS must confirm grading; no scheme is inherited from another course.
