One of the most important music forms of Uttarakhand, ______, was originally performed in royal courts.
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
C. ThadyaC. थाड्या
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Thadya.
According to the source, Thadya is one of the most important music forms of Uttarakhand and was originally performed in royal courts.
The book further explains that Thadya is a form of folk music sung by a group of singers comprising both men and women.
Therefore this question supplies three important source facts: Thadya — Uttarakhand — originally performed in royal courts — group folk singing by both men and women.
Although this question appears within the broader festivals and culture sequence of the book, it specifically tests regional folk music.
Such questions are common in SSC because Indian culture is frequently assessed through music forms, dance traditions, festivals and regional arts.
Maand is a familiar musical term and therefore serves as a plausible distractor, but the source clearly identifies Thadya as the Uttarakhand form being asked about.
Students should not memorise only the answer word; the royal-court origin and mixed-gender group singing are valuable clues for future statement-based questions.
The source does not provide a district, language, musical instruments, season or festival with which Thadya is associated, so those details should not be inserted as source-derived information.
For revision, retain the exact chain: Thadya — Uttarakhand folk music — originally performed in royal courts — sung by a group consisting of men and women.
This allows the fact to be answered even if SSC changes the wording.
Therefore option (c), Thadya, is correct.
सही उत्तर थाड्या है। स्रोत के अनुसार Thadya Uttarakhand के सबसे महत्वपूर्ण music forms में से एक है और इसे मूल रूप से royal courts में प्रस्तुत किया जाता था। पुस्तक आगे बताती है कि Thadya एक form of folk music है जिसे singers के group द्वारा गाया जाता है और इस group में men तथा women दोनों शामिल होते हैं। इसलिए इस question से चार महत्वपूर्ण source facts मिलते हैं: Thadya — Uttarakhand — Folk Music — Originally Performed in Royal Courts — Men and Women का Group Singing। यद्यपि यह question book के festival/culture sequence में आता है, इसका मुख्य विषय regional folk music है। SSC में Indian Culture के अंतर्गत music forms, dances, festivals और regional arts से questions frequently पूछे जाते हैं। Maand जैसा option familiar musical term होने के कारण अच्छा distractor है, लेकिन source स्पष्ट रूप से Thadya को Uttarakhand से जोड़ता है। केवल answer word याद करने के बजाय royal-court origin और mixed-gender group singing भी याद रखें, क्योंकि future question statement-based form में आ सकता है। Source इस entry में district, language, instruments, season या किसी specific festival का उल्लेख नहीं करता, इसलिए उन्हें book-derived facts के रूप में नहीं जोड़ा गया है। Quick revision chain: Thadya — Uttarakhand Folk Music — Royal Courts — Group Singing — Men + Women। इसलिए विकल्प (c), थाड्या, सही उत्तर है।
