PRODUCT REVIEW

2-National commission for backward classes
3-National investigation Agency
4-National Disaster Management Authority
5-Role of regional parties

I already had hard copy of older version. This time for latest version I opt for kindle version.
Book is excellent. As compared to my 4th version (read by my sister) this is highly updated and recommended to all.
As for kindle version, advantage is that I can read on my kindle reader(which I don't have) PC or mobile. With mobile I can read any where and when ever I want. This e-book have 'word wise' option which make easy to understand difficult words without referring to dictionary, very helpful to those who have weak English. Dictionary is available in many language including Hindi.
Disadvantages is that I cannot lend this book to anyone without sharing my Amazon user name and password. Text to speech is only possible with Alexa devices(android app available for mobile) or other kindle product such as Fire HDX, Kindle Fire HD, Kindle Fire, Amazon Echo, Amazon Tap etc.
Text to speech with Alexa(mobile app) is very clear and easy understanding but difficult point it from where to read.
