Biology Syllabus for UP TGT and UP PGT

Will you please tell me from where I can download the Syllabus for written examination of UP TGT and UP PGT?

[Kiran Chandar]

TGT stands for Trained Graduate Teacher and the PGT Post stands for the Graduate Teachers. A TGT teacher is a trained graduate teacher. They teach 6-10 standards. A PGT teacher is a post graduate teacher. They teach 11-12.
