A fun quiz for you. :)
Hiya CEans 😁
here is one simple quiz for you. 😀 i had set these for a club activity in my college. now you guys try to answer these questions 😁
1. “Water is the symbol of life and wealth, and the inward motion of the water symbolizes the retention of wealth”
This is the principle with which a beautiful structure has been built. Name this civil engineering wonder and also what this and its surrounding signify symbolically as a single entity.
2. Guess who these two people in the first pic are.

hint: the two are related to civil engineering and architecture fields respectively. there can be no civil engineering student without knowing the name of the first person. so ask your civil engineering friends. 😁 the second has built the structure which every one here must be knowing 😀
3. Identify the structure shown in second picture.
