In which state is the Sarhul Festival celebrated?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
D. JharkhandD. झारखंड
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Jharkhand.
According to the source, Sarhul is one of the most popular festivals celebrated across the Jharkhand region.
The book also provides a word-based explanation of the name: 'Sar' refers to year and 'Hul' means 'set to begin'.
Therefore, for this source-based question bank, the most important association is Sarhul — Jharkhand.
The meaning given in the book also provides an additional memory clue: Sar + Hul is connected with the beginning of a year.
Competitive examinations frequently ask regional festivals through state-festival matching.
In such questions, students are often given several states that have strong tribal and folk traditions, as seen here with Chhattisgarh and Assam, so merely recognising that Sarhul is a tribal or regional festival is not enough.
The exact Jharkhand association must be remembered.
The source does not provide the date, season, community, deity, ritual practices or detailed historical origin of Sarhul in this particular explanation.
Therefore those details have not been introduced as though they were derived from the book.
For examination revision, the safest chain is: Sarhul — Jharkhand — one of the most popular festivals of the Jharkhand region — 'Sar' refers to year and 'Hul' means set to begin.
A future question may ask the state directly, as here, or may use the word meaning as a clue.
Based on the source, option (d), Jharkhand, is correct.
सही उत्तर झारखंड है। स्रोत के अनुसार Sarhul झारखंड क्षेत्र में मनाए जाने वाले सबसे लोकप्रिय त्योहारों में से एक है। पुस्तक Sarhul शब्द का अर्थ समझाने के लिए भी एक महत्वपूर्ण तथ्य देती है। Source के अनुसार 'Sar' का अर्थ Year अर्थात वर्ष से है और 'Hul' का अर्थ 'set to begin' अर्थात आरंभ होने से है। इसलिए इस source-based question bank के लिए मुख्य association है: Sarhul — Jharkhand। शब्द के अर्थ वाला fact इसे याद रखने का एक अतिरिक्त तरीका देता है। Competitive examinations में regional festivals को state से match करने वाले questions बहुत common हैं। ऐसे प्रश्नों में अक्सर ऐसे states options में दिए जाते हैं जिनकी tribal और folk traditions मजबूत हैं। इस question में Chhattisgarh और Assam जैसे options इसी कारण confusion पैदा कर सकते हैं। केवल यह जानना कि Sarhul tribal या regional festival है, पर्याप्त नहीं है; exact state Jharkhand याद होना चाहिए। Source इस explanation में Sarhul की date, season, associated community, deity, ritual practices या detailed historical origin नहीं बताता। इसलिए उन्हें book-derived information के रूप में नहीं जोड़ा गया है। Exam revision के लिए सबसे सुरक्षित chain रखें: Sarhul — Jharkhand — Jharkhand region का popular festival — 'Sar' = Year — 'Hul' = Set to Begin। Future question direct state पूछ सकता है या word meaning को clue के रूप में दे सकता है। Source के अनुसार विकल्प (d), Jharkhand, सही उत्तर है।
