DID THAT REALLY HAPPEN?

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

1. Barack Obama celebrated Diwali by lighting the first-ever diya in the Oval Office of the White House.

2. Speaking at a preelection rally organized by the Republican Hindu Coalition, Donald Trump said, “I am a big fan of Hindu and I am a big fan of India.”

3. Members of the Hindu Sena celebrated a Trump victory on Nov. 4 in New Delhi, four days before the actual election.

4. Donald Trump sent a letter to Narendra Modi, saying all outsourced jobs will need to be returned to the U.S. within two years.

5. Five Indian-Americans, all Democrats, won seats in Congress in the general election.

 

 

(1, 2, 3, and 5 really happened.)
