Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. ChhattisgarhB. छत्तीसगढ़
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Chhattisgarh.
According to the source, Gaura-Gauri Puja is celebrated in Chhattisgarh on the day after Diwali.
The festival celebrates the pastoral life of the people of Chhattisgarh.
The book further states that gatherings associated with the festival include the rituals or performances of 'gedi', 'raut nacha' and 'panthi nritya' in traditional attire.
Therefore the question provides several useful Static GK associations beyond the state itself.
The complete source-supported chain is: Gaura-Gauri Puja — Chhattisgarh — day after Diwali — celebration of pastoral life — gedi — raut nacha — panthi nritya — traditional attire.
These details can be converted into multiple competitive examination questions.
For example, SSC may ask which festival is celebrated in Chhattisgarh after Diwali, which festival celebrates the pastoral life of the state's people, or which celebration features the cultural elements listed by the source.
Gujarat, Rajasthan and Uttarakhand all have major regional festivals, so they serve as reasonable distractors, but the source explicitly identifies Chhattisgarh.
The phrase 'day after Diwali' is especially useful for distinguishing Gaura-Gauri Puja from other festivals.
Students should also retain the three cultural terms supplied by the book rather than memorising only the state.
The source does not provide an exact calendar date, detailed mythology or duration in this entry.
For quick revision: Gaura-Gauri Puja — Chhattisgarh — after Diwali — pastoral life — Gedi — Raut Nacha — Panthi Nritya.
Therefore option (b), Chhattisgarh, is correct.
सही उत्तर छत्तीसगढ़ है। स्रोत के अनुसार Gaura-Gauri Puja Chhattisgarh में Diwali के अगले दिन मनाई जाती है। यह festival Chhattisgarh के लोगों के pastoral life अर्थात पशुपालक जीवन को celebrate करता है। पुस्तक आगे बताती है कि इस festival की gathering में traditional attire के साथ 'gedi', 'raut nacha' और 'panthi nritya' जैसे rituals या performances दिखाई देते हैं। इसलिए इस question से state के अतिरिक्त कई useful Static GK facts मिलते हैं। Complete source-supported chain है: Gaura-Gauri Puja — Chhattisgarh — Day After Diwali — Pastoral Life — Gedi — Raut Nacha — Panthi Nritya — Traditional Attire। इन facts से competitive examinations में अलग-अलग questions बन सकते हैं। उदाहरण के लिए पूछा जा सकता है कि Chhattisgarh में Diwali के अगले दिन कौन-सी पूजा मनाई जाती है, कौन-सा festival pastoral life को celebrate करता है या किस festival में Raut Nacha तथा Panthi Nritya जैसे cultural elements देखने को मिलते हैं। Gujarat, Rajasthan और Uttarakhand की भी important regional traditions हैं, लेकिन source specifically Chhattisgarh को identify करता है। 'Day after Diwali' इस festival को याद रखने का बहुत useful clue है। केवल state याद करने के बजाय source में दिए cultural terms भी याद रखें। Book exact calendar date, detailed mythology या duration नहीं देती। Quick revision: Gaura-Gauri Puja — Chhattisgarh — Diwali के अगले दिन — Pastoral Life — Gedi — Raut Nacha — Panthi Nritya। इसलिए विकल्प (b), छत्तीसगढ़, सही उत्तर है।
