Parameter of Indianness

Today I read an interesting article in Times of India titled with "Will she pass the Indianness test?”. I really get surprised to know some fact like most part of Indian history has been written by Englishmen apart from Bengalis, the first Malayalam dictionary was written by a German scholar and so many others. They asked two prominent Indians to devise questions that could be asked to migrants to prove their knowledge of Indian culture and surprisingly their view about our culture was also different from each other. I am giving their question also that was given in that article-
