Using capital letters and full-stop in bullet points
This question may be related with this question. I come to the direct point. I am confused with the usage of bullet points. Is is necessary to capitalize the first letter in each bullet point? Also, is it necessary to put full-stop at the end of a bullet point?

This is purely a matter of style. It depends on where the writing is being published and what the content is. House style will usually dictate if you use periods/full stops at the end of bullet points which are not sentences, if you are allowed to use commas or prohibited from using them, if you should or should not use capital letters, and so on.
I prefer capital letters to start bullets and periods for full sentences but not fragments, but that's just my aesthetic choice.
