Dear Friends
I was unable to post quizzes for a long time due to a heavy work schedule ( An MBA student starting Placements before completing MBA). I belong to an industry that is one of the most overworked and is least represented in the quizzing circles. Hence I was getting no time for my hobby quizzing. Finally I have managed to squeeze some time for this quiz. India's early exit from the world cup also has helped me as I would have been glued to the television, had India qualified for the semis. Here are the questions for Sunday League 6. Answers to quizrk@gmail.com. Right answers within a week. Answers to only those who attempt. Please answer all the questions. Some suggestions on how to maintain a good work-quiz balance is always welcome.
