Thank you for the Knowledge ! but, General knowledge (GK) has been found to have weak associations with measures of creativity. In a study examining contributions of personality and intelligence to creativity, general knowledge was positively correlated with tests of divergent thinking, but was unrelated to a biographical measure of creative achievement, self-rated creativity, or a composite measure of creativity. GK in Hindi, Current Affiars in Hindi.
