Hi Mainak,

For select queries the only way I know of for multiple records is through
using union:

0: jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000> with x as (select 1 num union select 2
union select 3) select * from x;
+--------+
| x.num  |
+--------+
| 1      |
| 2      |
| 3      |
+--------+

For table insertion you can use a syntax somewhat similar to VALUES

Kind Regards,
David
