However, when we are writing the names of the Deities we should only capitalize the names. The phrase 'gods and goddesses'...

The name of any specific deity is capitalized just like any other name, so when “God” is used to refer to “the one God,” So basically again here we are using a name, that make use to use the capital G

Generally we put G when we are referring to as the Supreme Being,Almighty. But when we refer to multicultural context we put g. Like in Hinduism there are many gods and goddesses so you can see the difference here.

hi akshay, spelling doesn't consider capital words. spelling means focussing on correct letters used.

Mr. Deepak, You are very correct ! One can't learn from someone without payment of fees. Recently, I have noticed at various instances that the students who want to learn through ONLINE are arguing that he has opted for study since it is FREE. You will be surprised to note that he is an Engineering student.
I feel when a student pays for something , he will not waste the chance to learn . Many times people dont value something if given free
