JAMMU, Oct 22: Anvika Mahajan, a LKG student of Jodhamal Public School, just a shade over 4 years old, has once again entered into ‘India Book of Records’ by making two new records.
At the age of 4 years, she made the first record, titled “Maximum General Knowledge questions answered blindfolded in one minute by a kid” was set here by answering 69 GK questions. This record was earlier set by Astik Pradhan of Sambalpur, Odisha, who had correctly answered 46 questions.
The second record, titled as “Maximum number of General Knowledge questions answered in 5 minutes by a kid” was also set by J&K’s little genius by answering 280 GK questions. This record was earlier held by Divya Basavakumar Ghante of Bidar, Karnataka, who had answered just 207 general knowledge questions.
These questions were from various topics including capitals of countries, capitals of all the States and Union Territories of India, national symbols, solar system, geography, symbols of elements of the periodic table, chemical names of generic medicines.
Anvika, who was in news earlier this year with a hat-trick of records, has broken two more records in General Knowledge categories by answering the maximum number of questions blindfolded in one minute and five minutes.
Nandan Kuthiala, trustee and Dr Deep Khare, Principal of the School complimented Anvika for this achievement.
