Correct Answerसही उत्तर
D. New DelhiD. नई दिल्ली
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is New Delhi.
According to the source, Sher Mandal, also described as Humayun's library, is a 16th-century historic building situated within the Purana Qila fort in Delhi, India.
Therefore, among the options supplied in the question, New Delhi is the intended answer.
This question combines Mughal-history-related knowledge with monument location and States
Places GK.
For examination preparation, the strongest association is Humayun's Library — Sher Mandal — Purana Qila — Delhi.
Remembering only 'Delhi' may solve this particular question, but remembering Sher Mandal and Purana Qila makes the fact useful for additional questions.
The source explicitly describes Sher Mandal as a 16th-century historical structure.
The options Aurangabad, Agra and Aligarh are all cities with important historical associations, especially Agra in the context of the Mughal period, which makes them effective distractors.
Students should therefore rely on the specific monument-location relationship rather than choosing a city merely because it is strongly associated with Mughal history.
SSC often asks such questions by connecting a ruler with a building or a building with a city.
The book does not provide further details about the construction history or architectural features of Sher Mandal in this explanation, so they have not been inserted as source-derived facts.
For revision, remember: Sher Mandal — Humayun's Library — Purana Qila — Delhi.
Based on the source and options, New Delhi, option (d), is correct.
सही उत्तर नई दिल्ली है। स्रोत के अनुसार Sher Mandal, जिसे Humayun's Library के रूप में भी बताया गया है, दिल्ली में स्थित Purana Qila के भीतर एक 16वीं शताब्दी की ऐतिहासिक इमारत है। इसलिए प्रश्न में दिए गए विकल्पों में New Delhi intended answer है। यह प्रश्न Mughal History, monument location और States/Places GK को जोड़ता है। परीक्षा के लिए सबसे महत्वपूर्ण association है: Humayun's Library — Sher Mandal — Purana Qila — Delhi। केवल Delhi याद करने से यह प्रश्न हल हो जाएगा, लेकिन Sher Mandal और Purana Qila भी साथ याद करने से इसी तथ्य से कई अन्य प्रश्न तैयार किए जा सकते हैं। स्रोत Sher Mandal को 16th-century historic building बताता है। Aurangabad, Agra और Aligarh सभी ऐतिहासिक महत्व वाले शहर हैं और विशेष रूप से Agra का Mughal history से मजबूत संबंध है, इसलिए वे अच्छे distractors हैं। विद्यार्थी केवल Mughal association देखकर Agra नहीं चुनें, बल्कि specific monument-location relation याद रखें। SSC में अक्सर किसी ruler को building से या building को city से मिलाने वाले प्रश्न पूछे जाते हैं। पुस्तक की explanation Sher Mandal के construction history या architectural features की अतिरिक्त जानकारी नहीं देती, इसलिए उन्हें यहां source-derived fact के रूप में नहीं जोड़ा गया है। Revision chain रखें: Sher Mandal — Humayun's Library — Purana Qila — Delhi। स्रोत और दिए गए विकल्पों के अनुसार option (d), New Delhi, सही उत्तर है।
