DID THAT REALLY HAPPEN?

How much do you know about current events in India and the U.S.? Try this short quiz!

1. Donald Trump hosted a Diwali celebration in the White House.

2. An Andhra Pradesh man set a Guinness World Record by smashing 212 walnuts with his hand in one minute.

3. Visiting the United States, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan said that roads in his state are better than in the U.S.

4. Kavita Devi became the first female wrestler from India to be signed to a contract by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

5. Ravinder Bhalla was elected mayor of Hoboken, New Jersey, despite being targeted by flyers that depicted him as a terrorist.

 

 

(All 5 really happened.)
