The most basic division of the Indian society is of the
Aryans of the north and the Dravidians of the south.
According to this division, nearly 70% of Indians are
Aryans and 30% are Dravidians. Those who prefer to see
mythology as proto-history see a particular story that
retells the epic conquest of fair-skinned cow-loving
Aryans over the dark-skinned buffalo-loving Dravidians.
Which highly celebrated story of Indian mythology is
being referred to here?

In the debut novel of sci-fi writer
Philip K. Dick, titled - Solar Lottery,
the plot is centred around a world
dominated by logic and numbers.
Loosely based on a military strategy
employed by U.S. and Soviet
intelligence called Minimax (part of
the game theory), it tells about a new
assassin whose job is to try to kill the
leader of the world government.
By what other name do we better
know this leader?

The idea was mooted by an adventurous engineer
Rowland Macdonald Stephenson. During the middle of
the 19th century, work started accordingly. But the
investors backed out, citing non-profitablity of the
project. Franklin Prestage who was fascinated by the
ethereal scenic beauty of the region, took interest and
restarted the project. Gillanders Arbuthnot and Co.
supervised it and the rest is history.
What is being talked about?

As an aftermath of the Las-Vegas Shooting Incident,
this popular slogan by the National Rifle Association -
‘I'll give you my gun when you pry (or take) it from my cold, dead hands’, came back into public memory.
Originally mentioned in a 1976 Report, the slogan’s
popularity owed to a former President of the NRA who
repeatedly mentioned these words (either fully or
partly) in his speeches till his retirement in 2003.
Who?

Though the title refers to an European country, the
novel is set in Tokyo during the late 1960s, at a time
when Japanese students, like those of many other
nations, were protesting against the establishment. It
made the author something of a superstar in his
native country. Interestingly, the novel shares its
name with something that is pretty popular among
the quizzers because of an India-connecting trivia.
Which novel is that?

The only film written by the Munshi Premchand in
which he also played a cameo, Majdoor (1934) courted
controversy owing to one particular sequence where the
sister incited the workers of a mill to strike against her
own brother who was the owner of that mill. It evoked
inflammatory responses across the country and the film
had to be pulled out of the theatres, in many cases,
through the use of force. Interestingly, workers at one
press in Benares were inspired by this film and called
for a strike against non-payment of wages.
Who was the owner of that well-known press?

An international friendly took place in Budapest on
2nd June 1990 where Hungary defeated Columbia 3-1.
Played in front of just 4,000 odd fans, the match is
remembered for some of the craziest antics ever seen
on football ground and another absolutely stoic
reaction by Carlos Valderrama during the ‘crunch
moment’.
What happened on the pitch?

Recently, it came into notice that practising
something regularly improve the strength of the
tongue muscles and reduce the ‘fat pads’ in the
throat. This in turn reduces snoring and eases the
symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea. This quirky
discovery helps that thing to come into mainstream
although Indians are pretty familiar with it because of
a much-talked-about superhit 2001 movie.
What is being talked about?

In January 1952, a young copywriter for Esquire left his
job after he was denied a $5 raise. In the very next year,
he took out a mortgage, arranged for a bank loan and
took donations from several ones to kickstart his dream
venture. School teacher Grace Caroline also supported
her son ‘not because she believed in the venture, but because she believed in her son’.
What was thus started?

As per the Indian mythology, there is a detailed
underlying meaning to it. One has to take a boat while
crossing a river. But sometimes the river is so shallow
that one can simply walk across. This type of
waterbody is called a Ford, but metaphorically
represent a ____. So as per the mythological beliefs,
____ is crossing from one bank to the other without
anyone’s help.

laws by surrendering a ship to Genoan bankers in
repayment of a debt, he sought a pardon from the
Spanish King Charles V, by signing on as a subordinate
officer for a first of it’s kind project. Though, he was the
one to have completed it, he was completely

wrote in her complaint that ‘he begins working calculus problems in his head as soon as he awakens. He did
calculus while driving, while sitting in the living room and while lying in bed at night.’
