Brief Summary    paediatric patients caudal epidural block is one of the safe and effective technique that can provide analgesia for intra operatively and post operatively ,the use of caudal epidural catheters are not popular are  because of the risk of infection. prolongation of the duration of anaesthesia is acheived by addition of various additives such as opiods,alpha 2 agonists, ropivacaine is extensively used because of its less cardiovascular and neurological toxicity. clonidine is an alpha 2 agonist which prolongs the duration and dexmedetomidine has 8 fold higher affinity for alpha 2 adrenergic receptors and much alpha 1 effect. so we conducted the study to compare the post operative duration of analgesis between these drugs
