In which state of India is the Moatsu Festival celebrated?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
C. NagalandC. नागालैंड
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Nagaland.
According to the source, the Ao tribe of Nagaland celebrates a special festival known as the Moatsu Festival.
The book states, in the context of the 2019 question, that the festival was set to be held on May 1, 2019.
More importantly for Static GK, it explains that the festival celebrates the Ao people of the state and is observed after seeds have been sown in the fields.
People redecorate their homes and come out in large numbers to celebrate.
Therefore the important long-term source associations are: Moatsu Festival — Nagaland — Ao Tribe — agricultural context — celebrated after sowing seeds — people redecorate their homes and participate collectively.
The specific date of May 1, 2019 should be understood as the source's time-specific statement rather than automatically treated as a permanent annual date.
For competitive examination preparation, tribe-festival-state combinations are especially important in North-East Indian GK.
Students should therefore connect Moatsu directly with the Ao tribe and Nagaland.
Tripura, Assam and West Bengal are plausible distractors because eastern and North-Eastern India has many tribal festivals.
However, the source clearly identifies Nagaland.
This question can easily be reversed in future exams: 'Moatsu is celebrated by which tribe?' In that form, the answer would be the Ao tribe according to the source.
Quick revision chain: Moatsu — Nagaland — Ao Tribe — after sowing of seeds — agricultural celebration — homes redecorated.
Thus option (c), Nagaland, is correct.
सही उत्तर नागालैंड है। स्रोत के अनुसार Nagaland की Ao Tribe एक विशेष festival मनाती है जिसे Moatsu Festival कहा जाता है। पुस्तक 2019 के question के context में बताती है कि festival 1 May 2019 को आयोजित होने वाला था। Static GK के लिए इससे भी अधिक महत्वपूर्ण fact यह है कि यह Ao people का festival है और खेतों में seeds sow किए जाने के बाद मनाया जाता है। Source के अनुसार लोग अपने घरों को फिर से सजाते हैं और बड़ी संख्या में celebration में भाग लेते हैं। इसलिए long-term revision chain है: Moatsu Festival — Nagaland — Ao Tribe — Agricultural Context — Seeds Sown होने के बाद Celebration — Homes Redecorated। 1 May 2019 वाली date को source के time-specific context के रूप में पढ़ना चाहिए, permanent annual date की तरह नहीं। Competitive exams में North-East India के tribe-festival-state combinations बहुत महत्वपूर्ण हैं। इसलिए Moatsu को सीधे Ao Tribe और Nagaland से जोड़कर याद करें। Tripura, Assam और West Bengal भी eastern तथा North-Eastern cultural traditions वाले क्षेत्र हैं, इसलिए वे plausible distractors हैं। Future question उल्टे रूप में पूछा जा सकता है—Moatsu किस tribe द्वारा मनाया जाता है? Source के अनुसार answer Ao Tribe होगा। इसी प्रकार festival का agricultural significance भी पूछा जा सकता है। Quick revision: Moatsu — Nagaland — Ao Tribe — Seeds Sowing के बाद — Agricultural Celebration — Homes Redecorated। इसलिए विकल्प (c), नागालैंड, सही उत्तर है।
