In which of the following states is the Madhavpur Mela celebrated?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
A. GujaratA. गुजरात
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Gujarat.
According to the source, Madhavpur Mela is celebrated in the Porbandar district of Gujarat.
This is a useful fair-location question because the next PYQ in the book explains the cultural significance of the same fair.
Therefore students should learn the complete association across both questions: Madhavpur Mela — Madhavpur (Ghed) — Porbandar district — Gujarat — associated with the story of Krishna and Rukmini.
For this direct MCQ, the essential geographical fact is Gujarat.
Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar all have major fairs and pilgrimage traditions, so they are plausible distractors.
State-fair questions are often straightforward but become much easier when the district or town is also remembered.
The source specifically states that the mela is organised and celebrated in Porbandar district, Gujarat.
A future question could ask the district rather than the state, so Porbandar should also be retained.
The nearby Q519 provides the mythological association, making this a good example of how sequential PYQs can be combined for revision without changing the original question.
The source does not provide a date, season or duration for Madhavpur Mela in this particular explanation.
Therefore those details have not been inserted as source-derived information.
For quick revision, remember: Madhavpur Mela — Gujarat — Porbandar district.
Add from the following source question: commemoration of Krishna and Rukmini.
According to the book, option (a), Gujarat, is correct.
सही उत्तर गुजरात है। स्रोत के अनुसार Madhavpur Mela Gujarat के Porbandar district में आयोजित और मनाया जाता है। यह fair-location question महत्वपूर्ण है क्योंकि पुस्तक का अगला PYQ इसी mela के cultural significance को explain करता है। इसलिए दोनों questions को revision में जोड़कर पूरा association याद किया जा सकता है: Madhavpur Mela — Madhavpur (Ghed) — Porbandar district — Gujarat — Krishna और Rukmini से संबंधित। इस direct MCQ के लिए मुख्य geographical fact है Gujarat। Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh और Bihar में भी प्रसिद्ध fairs और pilgrimage traditions हैं, इसलिए वे plausible distractors हैं। State-Fair questions अक्सर straightforward होते हैं, लेकिन district या town साथ याद करने पर future questions भी आसानी से हल होते हैं। Source स्पष्ट रूप से Porbandar district, Gujarat बताता है। इसलिए यदि भविष्य में district पूछा जाए तो Porbandar answer होगा। अगला Q519 Krishna और Rukmini की story से इसके association को बताता है, इसलिए sequential PYQs को revision के लिए जोड़ना उपयोगी है, जबकि original question structure जस का तस रहता है। Source इस explanation में fair की date, season या duration नहीं देता, इसलिए उन्हें source-derived facts के रूप में नहीं जोड़ा गया है। Quick revision chain: Madhavpur Mela — Gujarat — Porbandar district; अगला related fact — Krishna and Rukmini। इसलिए विकल्प (a), गुजरात, सही उत्तर है।
