They have always been smart and well educated!

Bengal was the epicenter of Indian culture and knowledge until India was invaded by the North Indian Neanderthal!

Epicentre of culture - 2 Nobel Laureates, 1 Oscar winner (and many other awards at Cannes, Legion de honore,l etc), 1 multiple Grammy winner, etc etc .. scientists come from down south, culture comes from east, money and industry from the west, and let's leave the northerners out of this....

You don't know Barkha is a Punjabi. And are you sure about Arnab? And you and all know how smart Bengalis are.

Explanation to question no. 9's answer mentions the word 'aircrafts'. However, in fact, plural of aircraft is aircraft itself!

You ignorant girl, you don't know anything about how English teachers used to be ill treated in North India when they tried to teach English to North Indians who could not learn it as they are stew p i d !

Bania people also find it difficult to learn English because most of their brain is dedicated to looting other people and planning scams!

No Gupta_n,

Caste is the official policy of the Indian government!

And It is a fact that Bania people find it difficult to learn English because most of their brain is dedicated to looting other people and planning scams!

Thank you for offering support to Casteism which is the official policy of Indian government!

BTW, why are these " best Engineers, Lawyers and Doctors" treated like illegal immigrants when they apply for driver's licenses or other services in the US?

Also, why does Intel need doctors working for them?

Is Intel afraid that it needs to have bania or Brahmin doctors on their premises to clean toilets if the "Kumars" don't show up?

One more ENGLISH quiz to reinforce the inferiority complex in Gujarati people who are unable to learn English because of their education in Gujarati medium schools!
