Respected seniors and aspirants kindly analyse the above outline of my essay..i attempted in css-2018. I tried to the best of my ability to avoid grammatical mistakes. i did not use any cliches and tried to avoid the use of words "we" "our" and "us". also used some quotations. i do not remember the words of my conclusion, but whatever i wrote...at that it seems to be good . correction will be highly appreciated. thanks in advance.
