Brief Summary   This is a prospective randomized double blind interventional study comparing the effectiveness of two different concentrations and volumes of lignocaine in reducing pain associated with propofol injection. A total of 150 patients scheduled for surgery under general anesthesia will be divided into two groups. Group A will receive 15 ml of 0 point 4 percent lignocaine and Group B will receive 3 ml of 2 percent lignocaine. The Numeric Rating Scale and Withdrawal Response Score will be used to evaluate pain. The study also aims to observe and compare any side effects in both groups. Data will be analyzed statistically with a p value less than 0 point 05 considered significant. The study will be conducted at Dr Susheela Tiwari Government Hospital Haldwani over a period of 18 months
