Answer / dinesh a.

If you have a primary key there is no need to create one
explicitly index on that , Oracle create implicitly index
on your primary key .

We create index on a table to fast access (ie retrive) so
your data accessing will be fast but same above asnwer in
case of DML operation the performance will get slow.
