      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group:1BFR with Low Intensity Resistance training ( For the first two weeks participants will follow home plan of standard physical therapy. Resistance training will be started if patient weight bears on unilateral leg for 5 s without support, have knee ROM of 0-90° able to perform repeated straight leg raise without knee extensor muscle lag. Patients 10 Repetition maximum (RM) will be used to predict 1 RM value according to formula 10 RM/ 0.75. BFR will be achieved using a tourniquet, and limb occlusion pressure (LOP) will be calculated, defined as the minimum pressure required for full arterial occlusion. Its will be calculated as baseline Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and formula for safety margins will be applied: add 40-50 mm Hg for SBP&lt;130, Add 60-75 mm Hg for SBP 131-190, Add 80 mm Hg for SBP &gt; 190. 60% of the calculated pressure will be used.  Prior to exercise the cuff will be placed on the most proximal portion of the limb. -Standard Physical Therapy:1)	Ankle Pumps2)	AAROM/ AROM3)	Quadriceps, Hamstrings and adductor setting Exercises 4)	Patellar Mobilization (grade I, II) 5)	Hamstrings, Calf &amp; IT Band Stretching -Resistance Training:5 min light cycling•	Start with 10 repetitions of unliteral leg press at light weights•	Calf raises •	Knee flexion•	Knee extension. Progress to 20-30% of predicted 1RM. Intervention 2: Intervention group: 2 BFR with High Intensity Resistance training (Resistance training will be started if patient weight bears on unilateral leg for 5 s without support, have knee ROM of 0-90° able to perform repeated straight leg raise without knee extensor muscle lag.
