 "Year in Google Search: Chandrayaan-3, 'What is G20' top trending list")
It is that time of the year when everyone looks back. Search giant Google has published a list of things that captured Indians’ attention in 2023, a year when the country made history by landing a spacecraft on the moon and taking the lead on the economic world stage by hosting the Group of 20 (G20) summit.
The country’s love for cricket and movies made it to the search list. The historic success of Chandrayaan-3 headlined news events, with the spacecraft’s journey to the moon prompting local and worldwide searches, said Google in a blog post.
India’s G20 presidency led ‘What Is’ search queries, marking curiosity about the multinational bloc. Other news-related queries showed people’s interest in national events like Karnataka assembly election results and debate about the Uniform Civil Code and global happenings like 'Israel News' and 'Turkey Earthquake'.
In the spirit of self-care, Google’s top trending ‘How To’ question was people searching about preventing sun damage to skin and hair with home remedies. People also searched for gyms, beauty parlours, and dermatologists near them. The expansion of the creator ecosystem in India is reflected in trending queries, with many people keen to know ‘how to reach my first 5K followers on YouTube’, said Google.
