I am posting this now because there are a lot of facebook pages and quora answers with some of the fundaes from this, and posting this anytime later will make the research that went into this quiz look ordinary. Note that this quiz was held much before them (the quora answers and facebook page).
Also, many thanks to The Hindu and Madras Musings for their archives.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

• The Prophet Mohammed died in AD 632 without naming a
successor. Some of his followers believed the role of the Caliph,
or Viceroy of God, should be passed down Mohammed’s
bloodline, starting with his cousin and son-in-law, Ali ibn Ali
Talib. But the majority backed the Prophet’s friend Abu Bakr, who
duly became the Caliph. Ali eventually became the fourth Caliph
before being murdered in AD 661 and The succession was once
again disputed. The majority backed the claim of Mu’awiyah,
Governor of Syria and his son Yazid. Ali’s supporters agitated for
his son Hussain. What did this difference of opinion lead to?

• In the 13th century, Tugan Khan decided to attack this place, the then ruling king, decided to use
subterfuge against the Muslims..
• Tugan had by that time overrun Bengal and claimed that he had put the fear of death in the heart of
the locals and could overrun the entire country in a single campaign.
• But the king of the palce had other ideas and decided send word to Tugan that he was ready to
surrender to the Muslims without a fight. Tugan accepted surrender proposal with other conditions
like the embracing of Islam by the entire population in the central square in front of the iconic local
temple or agreeing to pay Jazia and to convert the temple into a Mosque as an acknowledgement of
submission.
• On the orders of king, the city had been completely evacuated of its pilgrims and inhabitants and was
filled with soldiers from all over the kingdom hidden away inside the closely built houses across the
narrow winding lanes.
• Once the Muslim army was inside the city, it had to disperse itself into the maze of narrow lanes and
had to dismount from their horses and advance single file.
• When the Muslim army was so dispersed, at a prearranged signal the temple bells started ringing, and
this was the signal for the Hindus to pounce on the Muslims. The battle lasted one whole day and
went into the night. While the Hindus took many losses, the entire Muslim army was caught and
annihilated.

the Working Committee of the Congress, Jawaharlal Nehru was

the mood of most thinking Indians."
• The British establishment too was not disturbed by these plans of
resistance. The Viceroy himself, Lord Irwin, did not take the threat
of the protest seriously, writing to London, "At present the
prospect of a X campaign does not keep me awake at night."
