Abstract
Inflated-parameter Harris distribution is introduced and its properties are studied. A characterization
based on p.g.f is given. The maximum likelihood and moment estimators of the parameters
are found out together with their standard errors. The distribution is seen to be a good fit to a
real life situation concerning the published results of Kerala Public Service Commission.
