Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. KalibanganB. कालीबंगन
Explanationव्याख्या
According to the supplied source, the correct answer is Kalibangan.
The book describes Kalibangan as an ancient site of the Indus Valley Civilization located in northern Rajasthan in north-western India.
It further states that the archaeological site contains both pre-Harappan and Harappan remains.
Therefore, for the purpose of this question, the central source-based association is: Kalibangan → Rajasthan → Indus Valley Civilization → both pre-Harappan and Harappan remains.
The question specifically asks for a mature-phase Harappan site situated in Rajasthan, and the printed solution selects Kalibangan.
The other options are Manda, Chanhudaro and Nageshwar.
The source does not give the locations or chronological phases of these three distractors in this particular explanation, so those details have not been supplied from outside knowledge.
This preserves the evidence and framing of the book.
For competitive-exam revision, the strongest clue is the Rajasthan–Kalibangan association.
Therefore option (b), corresponding to zero-based answer index 1, is correct according to the supplied source.
दिए गए स्रोत के अनुसार सही उत्तर कालीबंगन है। पुस्तक Kalibangan को उत्तर-पश्चिम भारत के उत्तरी Rajasthan में स्थित Indus Valley Civilization का एक प्राचीन स्थल बताती है। स्रोत आगे कहता है कि इस archaeological site पर pre-Harappan और Harappan दोनों प्रकार के अवशेष पाए जाते हैं। इसलिए इस प्रश्न के लिए मुख्य स्रोत-आधारित संबंध है: Kalibangan → Rajasthan → Indus Valley Civilization → pre-Harappan तथा Harappan दोनों अवशेष। प्रश्न विशेष रूप से Rajasthan में स्थित mature-phase Harappan site पूछता है और मुद्रित समाधान Kalibangan को चुनता है। अन्य विकल्प Manda, Chanhudaro और Nageshwar हैं। इस explanation में स्रोत इन तीन distractors के locations या chronological phases नहीं बताता, इसलिए general knowledge से उनकी अतिरिक्त जानकारी नहीं जोड़ी गई है। इससे पुस्तक की framing और evidence सुरक्षित रहते हैं। प्रतियोगी परीक्षा के लिए Rajasthan–Kalibangan association सबसे महत्वपूर्ण clue है। अतः विकल्प (b), zero-based answer index 1, सही है।
