PREFACE
TBSE always believes in Global Trends of Educational Transformation. In light of this, TBSE has
now adopted the All India pattern of Secondary and Higher Secondary stages of education. This
pragmatic change was made with a vision to bring students studying under Tripura Board at par
with the students of the rest of the country .
These Oswaal Tripura Question Bank English for Class IX has been written so as to
supplement the need of the students to prepare for progressive assessments at school during the
entire year.
Oswaal Question Bank is divided into seven sections as prescribed by TBSE - Poetry, Prose,
Supplementary Reading, Writing, Grammar, Comprehension, Project and ASL. Each section is
updated and in line with Tripura Board guidelines and syllabus. Our team has given special focus
while writing because this subject is not only important from examination point of view but also
improves day to day communication through reading, writing and grammar skills. Solutions are
always checked twice and tried to made precise as per the TBSE guidelines. Practically, this book
provides students everything they need to learn. Since we believe in continuous improvement,
hence this book is updated, reviewed every year with new questions, changes in syllabus and
reader's suggestions.
At last we would like to thank our authors, editors, reviewers and specially students who
regularly send us suggestions which help in continuous improvement of this book and make this
bo ok stand inthe category of “One of the Best”. Wish you all Happy Learning.
