Hi Manish As you know the interface can't be instantiated directly so it needs to be inherited. which means it is default should have some access modifier. It should be public.

Access specifiers are not allowed for interface members - it is a compile time error to use them. However all interface members are explicitly public and so a class (or struct) which implements the interface must provide public implementations of those members. The only exception to this is if the member is implemented 'explicitly' (i.e. it can only be accessed via an interface reference) in which case no access modifiers are permitted. For example: interface IFace { void MyMethod(); void YourMethod(); } class MyClass : IFace { public void MyMethod(){} void IFace.YourMethod(){} // implemented explicitly }
