This was a quiz modelled on Jeopardy lines. As we still have not completed the entire set of questions ( 200 totally), the questions will be added at a later time.

Devashish's questions featured Indian Myth, word origins, Indian history & General trivia.

His quiz also contained a very innovative & interesting part. He read out stanzas from "The watchers of the sky" - Alfred Noyes( remember - The Highway man poem). This poem was about scientists and scientific discoveries. We had to identify whom/ what the stanzas referred to.Here is the link to the ebook version: Watchers of the Sky - Alfred Noyes
