Brief Summary   Transversus Abdominus Plane block can be used to manage postoperative pain in patients undergoing lower abdominal surgeries under general anesthesia. In this study we are comparing two drugs- 0.5% Bupivacaine and 0.75% Ropivacaine with an adjuvant of dexmedetomidine to analyse the duration of postoperative analgesia provided by the drugs. Perioperative hemodynamic status will also be studied
