Correct Answerसही उत्तर

A. Jammu & KashmirA. जम्मू और कश्मीर

Explanationव्याख्या

The correct answer according to the source is Jammu & Kashmir.
The book states that Vaishno Devi Mandir is a Hindu temple located in Katra at the Trikuta Mountains within the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir.
Therefore the source-supported revision chain is: Vaishno Devi Mandir — Hindu Temple — Katra — Trikuta Mountains — Jammu & Kashmir.
Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh are distractors.
This is a source-based historical question from an SSC MTS examination dated 22 August 2019, and the state description has therefore been preserved exactly as given in the book rather than updated using later administrative changes.
The source does not provide further information about the deity, cave, pilgrimage route or altitude in this entry.
Therefore those details have not been added.
Quick revision: Vaishno Devi = Katra = Trikuta Mountains = Jammu & Kashmir according to the source.
Therefore option (a) is correct.

स्रोत के अनुसार सही उत्तर Jammu & Kashmir है। Book बताती है कि Vaishno Devi Mandir एक Hindu temple है जो Katra में Trikuta Mountains पर, source के अनुसार Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir के भीतर स्थित है। इसलिए source-supported revision chain है: Vaishno Devi Mandir — Hindu Temple — Katra — Trikuta Mountains — Jammu & Kashmir। Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh और Madhya Pradesh distractors हैं। यह 22 August 2019 के SSC MTS question का source-based record है, इसलिए administrative description को उसी historical source wording में preserve किया गया है और बाद के changes के आधार पर silently update नहीं किया गया। Source deity, cave, pilgrimage route या altitude की further details नहीं देती। Quick revision: Vaishno Devi = Katra = Trikuta Mountains = Jammu & Kashmir according to source। इसलिए विकल्प (a) सही उत्तर है।
