PGCET Electrical Syllabus

I am from Bangalore and have done B.Tech in Electrical Engineering. Now I want to do M.Tech, so I have to appear in Karnataka PGCET Exam. So please provide me detailed syllabus of Karnataka PGCET Electrical Branch with its previous year question papers. Give me syllabus in pdf file.

Hello sir, I’m ging to get admission through PGCET with electrical branch. Can any one provide me syllabus of PGCET electrical branch?
