Indiviuals will be randomly allocated in groups by using simple random sampling or lotary method after taking their written consents. The participants will be allocated in two different group where group A will receive tibiofemoral joint mobilization while group B will receive Maitland mobilization. NPRS, Goniometer and Kujala Score questionnaire will be used to find out the pain, Range of motion and functional limitation among the patients having Patellofemoral pain syndrome, Blinding description: Each participants will be asked to choose between two pieces of paper, with group A and group B written on them. Participants will be allocated into treatment groups according to the piece of paper they choose. The patients will not know, in which group he/she is enrolled to avoid bias. N/A Non specific knee pain. Intervention 1: Intervention group A will receive Kaltenborn Mobilization to improve the knee's range of motion, specifically focusing on enhancing flexion and extension. It will receive Moist heat, quads and hamstring strengthening 10 repetitions in each session. Intervention 2: Intervention group B will receive Maitland Mobilization that mainly focuses on patellofemoral joint in order to increase movements of knee joint. It will receive Moist heat, quads and hamstring strengthening 10 repetitions in each session. Undecided - It is not yet known if there will be a plan to make this available Justification or reason for indecision in sharing IPD is There is no further information
