Brief Summary   This study is a randomised control trial to compare clinical and radiological outcome of posterior decompression vs posterior decompression and lateral mass screw fixation in patients with multisegmental Cervical spondylotic Myelopathy. Patients will be followed for a period of 6 months and at each followup mJOA score and recovery rate will be calculated. For radiological outcome xrays will be done on followup at 3rd and 6th month after surgery
