	Great quiz! You definitely hit it for six with this one!

	I'm sorry, but I don't really see how Field Hockey is a game, but Cricket is a sport. This just got me thinking of chess or something (although some would even call that a sport...).

	i'm glad i blanked for a moment and typed red instead of orange for the flag colors--otherwise i'd never gotten that fort. :)

	The national bird is actually the Indian Peafowl. A peacock is the male version of said bird.

	Anybody else get "Goa" trying to incorrectly guess "goat" for the national animal?

	Good quiz. I am from India and 25% Asian so this is one of my favorites.

	Checking the figures Kolkata has around 15M compared to Bangalore's 7M which is smaller than Chennai (8M).

	oh great now we will have quizzes where people are claiming they are to India-centric

	@zeppelinoid: and psubball1: Please do not accept K2 for Kanchenjunga as they are completely different mountains. K2 is in the Karakoram range on the border between Pakistan and China. Kanchejunga is in the Himalayas on the border between Nepal and India

	@Tobsodan "A game is structured playing, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes used as an educational tool." Do you really want to argue with Wikipedia, cause you'll always lose.

	According to the 2011 census as listed on Wikipedia, the top 5 cities by population are now Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Ahmedabad...might want to update the quiz with this recent info.

	@gowhere: Thanks. Stupid comment by me. I have been under that misapprehension for about 40 years. Moral: always check a source.

	Great Quiz but orange should not be accepted for saffron.. the national color is not orange

	Tobsodan:	Oct 21st, 2011 at 08:54 GMT		5 points
	@nashedpotatoes: Of course any sport can also be called a game. The problem I have here however, is that two different terms are used (sport for cricket, game for field hockey) without there being any real reason fot this.

	tm16scud:	Oct 21st, 2011 at 14:24 GMT		6 points
	I never thought to try a sport for "national game." Tried checkers, chess, Monopoly, Risk...

	Is this the only nation outside of North America where soccer/football/futbol is not the most popular sport?

	Sucessfully remembered Rajasthan as the largest providence but missed China as a bordering country. I wonder if they have Sporclitis colonies in India...

	Can you accept "peafowl" and "Bengal tiger"?

	You need to give the source info for the population figures, because according to all sources I've seen, the list is WAY off.

	psubball1:	Oct 23rd, 2011 at 06:03 GMT		2 points
	@springmom: Honestly, I swear I used http://www.citypopulation.de/world/Agglomerations.html but the info on Sporcle has been changed for some reason? If there another source people would prefer please provide it when asking about my own! It helps to get the best information for the quiz, which is the most important part. :)

	Only 9% know Jana Gana Mana? sad.

	I stumbled across, guessing Rajasthan and Goa as the 5th largest city (which I never got), and they happened to be the largest and smallest states. I'm annoyed that I forgot the first "n" in "Kanchenjunga."

	Laccadive sea is also known as Lakshadweep sea.
