Over the period of time the GATE examination has become

more challenging due to increasing number of candidates.

Though every candidate has ability to succeed but competi-

tive environment, in-depth knowledge, quality guidance and

good source of study is required to achieve high level

goals.

The new edition of GATE 2017 Solved Papers : Mechanical & PI Engineering has been fully revised,

updated and edited. The whole book has been divided into topicwise sections.

At the beginning of each subject, analysis of previous papers are given to improve the under-

standing of subject. This book also contains the conventional questions asked in GATE

before 2003.

I have true desire to serve student community by way of providing good source of study and

quality guidance. I hope this book will be proved an important tool to succeed in GATE examination.

Any suggestions from the readers for the improvement of this book are most welcome.
