Oldest woman to win grand slam?
Oldest woman to win grand slam- Serena Williams, I think.
Yup it is,just checked wikipedia
Shouldn’t no. 12 be INS Vikramaditya? Because as far as I can remember, the question was which air craft carrier was inducted recently.
Exactly, and the question did not contain the words indigenously built- however both Vikrant and Vikramaditya were inducten in 2013. :/ So which is the right option?
C. K Nayudu Lifetime achievement 2012 to?
Wasn’t the question the oldest woman to be no.1 in tennis?
Even INS Vikrant was launched recently.
its vikrant i just checked it
The question was about the name of the carrier that was inducted into the Navy, Vikrant was launched, but is yet to be commissioned, therefore INS Vikramaditya is the answer. Also, Vikramaditya was originally a Russian carrier under a different name, it was upgraded, refitted and handed over to india.
Yes, it was Gorshkov or something. I too thought of marking VIkramaditya but since it was bought from Russia, I marked Vikrant.
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/India-launches-first-indigenous-aircraft-carrier-INS-Vikrant/articleshow/21774409.cms
the answer to this question is ins vikramaditya(in my opinion) because vikramaditya was commissioned on 16th november whereas ins vikrant is yet to be commissoned
“INDIAN” aircraft carrier “LAUNCHED” recently (they haven’t mentioned whether it’s commissioned or not) is INS VIKRANT.
no it is INS Vikrant . Vikramaditya was an aircraft carrier but in 2013 it entered into service with indian navy.
Also, isn’t VIkramaditya Russian?

the question was not on earth but on india …….. hat divides india into……….

Dude they asked which is the most populous city in the world not india
And the answer is vikramaditya
no.6 when u say parliament- it means both the rajya sabha and the lok sabha right? as is that the constituents of the parliament- the lok sabha+ rajya sabha+ president. Hence, I thought that as Jus. Sen was voted to be impeache only by the Rajya Sabha and not by the Lok Sabha, afetr which he resigned, it wouldn’t be fair to say that the Parliament voted to impeach him. Please comment.
exactly! it should be ramaswami, then!
Also, The question about NATO…See this link people-https://www.facebook.com/dreamUPSC/posts/487810294614599
Turkey is a member, it has 28 members and US is indeed the Ex-officio member- however if u look carefully, it is not just a collective defence organization in Europe- Non Eurpoean nations like USA and Canada…so what do you guys think the final answer is?

Guys,is a 22/35 in the gk section of ailet good?
The C. K Naydu award for the year 2012 was asked, in my paper.
okay.so can someone tell me whether its vikramaditya or vikrant?
i marked vikrant as the question said nothing about the aircraft carrier being indigenous.
sorry i mean i marked vikramaditya!
There was a question about picking a UNESCO World Heritage Site out of the given options as well, the answer for which was the Sundarbans.
What is the answer of question no.34..??is it iron ore??
The air carrier question, Im pretty positive about Vikramaditya, because they asked ‘WAS INDUCTED RECENTLY’. INS Vikrant is indigenous, sure, but its under construction which is due by end of 2016, so it’ll be inducted most probably by 2017 or later. But there definitely was ambiguity in the question, I guess they merged two different questions or something, there’s a possibility both are correct.
Okay so according to this i’m getting 21 right… 🙁 The ones I guessed I don’t really remember…what according to you people should be the nominal score ?
Thanks .. 🙂
C.K. Nayudu 2012. Not 13.
they asked about the world’s 2nd most populous city i.e. BEIJING and not india,s 2nd most populous city !!
You are right, they scared the hell out of me.
actually, the question was (which is the recently inducted aircraft carrier??)
not the ingenious one…
actor who won oscar award in 2006 and died recently? Philip Seymour Hoffman
The question was : Which air craft carrier was recently inducted into the Indian Navy?
INS Vikrant wasn’t inducted into the navy.
