Information for the all disciplines has been sourced from multiple agencies and sources. Though I must confess I am not in a position to remember all of them in complete detail, I have specified some of them which I do in the posted articles. All credit goes to the original authors and websites for the valuable information they had. My job was just to club all information together to present the same in a cohesive fashion. I take absolutely no credit for this work. I would recommend everyone to visit the original website for original articles to acknowledge their due credit (authors). Also I would like to add on that in most cases, there have been other online and offline sources as well for the information compiled which might have not been mentioned in the articles. In case the names have not been specifically mentioned, you are free to contact me to obtain the information pertaining to the same.
