Shore temple is situated in which state of India?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. Tamil NaduB. तमिलनाडु
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Tamil Nadu.
According to the source, the Shore Temple is named so because it overlooks the shore of the Bay of Bengal.
The book states that it is located near Chennai in Tamil Nadu and is a structural temple constructed with blocks of granite, dating from the 8th century AD.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Shore Temple — Tamil Nadu — near Chennai — overlooks Bay of Bengal — Structural Temple — Granite Blocks — 8th Century AD.
Odisha, Maharashtra and Kerala are distractors.
This question repeats an earlier Shore Temple question where the specific location Mahabalipuram was asked.
Together, the two source entries allow useful revision: Shore Temple → Mahabalipuram
near Chennai → Tamil Nadu → Bay of Bengal.
The current entry does not add dynasty information, so that has not been repeated as though it were part of this specific source explanation.
Quick revision: Shore Temple = Tamil Nadu = near Chennai = Bay of Bengal = granite structural temple of 8th century according to source.
Therefore option (b) is correct.
सही उत्तर Tamil Nadu है। स्रोत के अनुसार Shore Temple का नाम इसलिए पड़ा क्योंकि यह Bay of Bengal के shore को overlook करता है। Book बताती है कि यह Tamil Nadu में Chennai के पास स्थित है और granite blocks से बना structural temple है, जिसकी dating 8th century AD की दी गई है। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Shore Temple — Tamil Nadu — Chennai के पास — Bay of Bengal — Structural Temple — Granite Blocks — 8th Century AD। Odisha, Maharashtra और Kerala distractors हैं। यह earlier Shore Temple question का repetition है जिसमें specific location Mahabalipuram पूछा गया था। इसलिए source-based revision association बनती है: Shore Temple → Mahabalipuram/near Chennai → Tamil Nadu → Bay of Bengal। Current entry dynasty information नहीं देती, इसलिए उसे इस specific explanation में source-derived fact की तरह repeat नहीं किया गया। Quick revision: Shore Temple = Tamil Nadu = Bay of Bengal = 8th-century Granite Structural Temple according to source। इसलिए विकल्प (b), Tamil Nadu, सही उत्तर है।
