I study in AAKASH Institute and teachers told me there, and i read In a book too, that SCIENTIFIC NAMES SHOULD NOT CONTAIN LESS THAN THREE AND MORE THAN TWELVE LETTERS. if it so, than why "Mangifera indica" has 15 letters?? plz JUSTIFY....

No, its not like that, but yes usually long names have been avoided  according to ICBN but examples of long names still exist such as Acanthococcus.
