Brief Summary   This study is a prospective, interventional randomised comparitive study conducted in the Department of Anaesthesiology and intensive care, VMMC and Safdarjung hospital to compare the analgesic efficacy of combined External oblique intercostal and rectus sheath block with local infilteration of analgesia at port site for post operative analgesia in ASA grade I and II patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy with the hypothesis that combined External oblique intercostal and rectus sheath block is superior to local infilteration of analgesia at port site. Primarily post operative VAS score will be recorded at 1 hour. Secondarily, VAS at 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 will be recorded along with cummulative 24 hour analgesia requirement and time to first rescue analgesia.
