Wikimedia Response

1

Hi,
I am new to Wikimedia API and tried my hands on the Wikimedia sandbox. I am trying to make a simple query where I want to get the ‘info’ & ‘categories’ of a page by its title.

Query -

/w/api.php?action=query&format=json&prop=info%7Ccategories&titles=India&formatversion=2

But I am getting a strange response where it simply returns the following response -

Response -

{
    "batchcomplete": true,
    "query": {
        "pages": [
            {
                "ns": 0,
                "title": "India",
                "missing": true,
                "contentmodel": "wikitext",
                "pagelanguage": "en",
                "pagelanguagehtmlcode": "en",
                "pagelanguagedir": "ltr"
            }
        ]
    }
}

I am not able to figure out what is going on here. A few days back this returned a proper response.

Has anyone else seen this response ?
Please help me out here if anyone has a clue about what is wrong.
