Brief Summary   This is a randomised comparative study to compare the effect of preoperative nebulisation with Lignocaine versus Budesonide for prevention of Post Operative Sore Throat after supraglottic airway inserion in adult patients undergoing General Anaesthesia.
Total sample size - 86 (43 patients in neach group)

Primary Objective is to compare preoperative nebulisation with Lignocaine versus Budesonide for prevention of post operative sore throat after supraglottic airway insertion in adult patients undergoing general anaesthesia.

Secondary Objective is 
1. To compare preoperative nebulisation with Lignocaine versus Budesonide for prevention of post operative dysphagia after supraglottic airway insertion in adult patients undergoing general anaesthesia. 
2. To compare preoperative nebulisation with Lignocaine versus Budesonide for prevention of post operative cough after supraglottic airway insertion in adult patients undergoing general anaesthesia.
