In which Union Territory of India is Bastille Day celebrated?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
D. PuducherryD. पुदुचेरी
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Puducherry.
According to the source, Bastille Day is celebrated in Pondicherry, now commonly referred to as Puducherry.
The book notes that festivals often have a long history associated with them and identifies this particular observance with Puducherry.
This association is understandable within the source's cultural framing because Puducherry has a distinctive historical connection reflected in some of its local observances.
For the direct examination question, the essential source-based association is Bastille Day — Puducherry.
The other options—Lakshadweep, Daman & Diu and Dadra and Nagar Haveli—are or were Union Territories in the historical context of older PYQs, which makes them plausible distractors.
Administrative arrangements concerning Union Territories can change over time, so this question should be read in the context of the examination period and the terminology used by the source.
The source itself uses both Pondicherry and Puducherry, so students should recognise that these names refer to the same place in this context.
Questions can be reversed by asking which important day is observed in Puducherry because of its historical-cultural association, in which case Bastille Day would be the answer.
Since the source does not provide the date, historical event in France or a detailed account of its celebration in Puducherry, those facts have not been presented as source-derived content here.
Quick revision: Bastille Day — Puducherry
Pondicherry.
Therefore option (d), Puducherry, is correct.
सही उत्तर पुदुचेरी है। स्रोत के अनुसार Bastille Day Pondicherry, जिसे अब सामान्य रूप से Puducherry कहा जाता है, में मनाया जाता है। पुस्तक यह बताती है कि कई festivals और observances के पीछे लंबा historical background होता है और इसी context में Bastille Day को Puducherry से जोड़ा गया है। इस PYQ के लिए मुख्य association है: Bastille Day — Puducherry। Lakshadweep, Daman & Diu और Dadra and Nagar Haveli भी पुराने PYQ context में Union Territories से संबंधित विकल्प हैं, इसलिए वे अच्छे distractors हैं। Union Territories की administrative arrangements समय के साथ बदल सकती हैं, इसलिए इस question को examination period और source terminology के context में पढ़ना चाहिए। Source Pondicherry और Puducherry दोनों नामों का प्रयोग करता है, इसलिए विद्यार्थियों को समझना चाहिए कि यहां दोनों एक ही स्थान को refer करते हैं। प्रश्न उल्टे रूप में भी पूछा जा सकता है—Puducherry में कौन-सा विशेष day मनाया जाता है? तब answer Bastille Day होगा। पुस्तक इस explanation में इसकी तारीख, France की historical event या Puducherry में celebration की detailed history नहीं देती, इसलिए उन्हें source-derived facts के रूप में नहीं जोड़ा गया है। Quick revision chain: Bastille Day — Puducherry/Pondicherry। इसलिए विकल्प (d), पुदुचेरी, सही उत्तर है।
