Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
To assess the efficacy of sutures vs N-butyl-2-cy- anoacrylate vs self-gripping mesh for mesh fixation in reducing postoperative pain during elective primary unilateral inguinal hernia repair  day 0,1,2,7,30 of surgery 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
1. To compare the short-term outcomes (local numbness and hematoma, seroma, rate of SSI, urinary retention, length of operation, intraoperative time for mesh fixation, Length of hospital stay and time to re- turn to work) between the three groups

2. To compare the long-term outcomes (Chronic pain, recurrence and cost benefit analysis), between the three groups.
3. To analyse cost effectiveness between the three groups
 
day 0,1,2,7,30 and after 6 months of surgery

    Additional Information - 
Brief Summary   This study is going to be a three arm RCT comparing three efficient methods of mesh fixation in elective hernia repair to compare the outcomes of surgery post operatively. Using sutures, N-butyl-2cyanoacrylate and self gripping mesh we aim to compare the three in different aspects of probable improvement in the age old technique of Meshplasty with sutures which is widely used and is known to be commonly associated with post operative chronic pain.
