|Spinal anaesthesia will be performed at the level of L3-L4 through a midline approach using a 25-gauge Quincke spinal needle with patient in lateral position. After confirming free flow of cerebrospinal fluid, drug is injected into subarachnoid space.

Patients will be divided into three groups of thirty each (n=30):-

Group BC ,Group BD and Group BS.

Group-BC: 0.5% bupivacaine 17.5mg (3.5ml) with 50µg Clonidine (in 0.5ml normal saline) (Total volume-4ml) .

Group-BD: 0.5% bupivacaine 17.5mg (3.5ml) with 5 µg Dexmedetomidine

(in 0.5ml  normal saline) (Total volume-4ml).

Group-BS:0.5% Bupivacaine 17.5mg (3.5ml) with 0.9% Normal saline (0.5ml)

(Total volume-4 ml).

The time to reach T6 dermatome sensory block will berecorded before surgery.Visual Analog Scale will be recorded up to 24 hoursto assess adequacy of analgesia
