Correct Answerसही उत्तर
A. Me-Dam-Me-PhiA. मे-दम-मे-फी
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Me-Dam-Me-Phi.
According to the source, Me-Dam-Me-Phi is the most important ancestor-worship communal festival in the Ahom religion.
It is celebrated by the Ahom people on 31 January every year in memory of the departed.
The book further explains that the festival is a manifestation of the concept of ancestor worship which the Ahoms share with other peoples originating from the Tai stock.
This is a repeated fact in the source: an earlier question also identifies Me-Dam-Me-Phi as an Assam festival observed on 31 January by the Ahom people in memory of departed ancestors.
Repetition makes this a high-value Static GK fact.
The complete source-supported revision chain is: Me-Dam-Me-Phi — Assam — Ahom people — Ahom religion — ancestor worship — 31 January — memory of the departed — connection with peoples of Tai stock.
Competitive examinations can test any part of this chain.
The festival may be given and the state asked, the Ahom community may be given and the festival asked, or the date 31 January may be used as the identifying clue.
TirthaMukh, Lampra Puja and Ashokastami are distractors in the original PYQ; the source does not elaborate on them here.
Students should especially remember the unique combination of Ahom, Assam and ancestor worship.
For quick revision: Ahom People + Assam + Ancestor Worship + 31 January = Me-Dam-Me-Phi.
Therefore option (a), Me-Dam-Me-Phi, is correct.
सही उत्तर Me-Dam-Me-Phi है। स्रोत के अनुसार Me-Dam-Me-Phi Ahom religion का सबसे important ancestor-worship communal festival है। इसे Assam के Ahom people द्वारा प्रत्येक वर्ष 31 January को departed लोगों की memory में मनाया जाता है। पुस्तक आगे बताती है कि यह festival ancestor worship की उस concept का manifestation है जिसे Ahoms अन्य Tai stock से originating peoples के साथ share करते हैं। यह source में repeated fact है। इससे पहले भी book में Me-Dam-Me-Phi को Assam, Ahom people, 31 January और departed ancestors की memory से जोड़कर question दिया गया है। इसलिए यह high-value Static GK fact है। Complete source-supported revision chain है: Me-Dam-Me-Phi — Assam — Ahom People — Ahom Religion — Ancestor Worship — 31 January — Memory of Departed — Tai Stock Connection। Competitive examinations इस chain के किसी भी part से question बना सकते हैं। Festival देकर state पूछा जा सकता है, Ahom community देकर festival पूछा जा सकता है या 31 January को identifying clue बनाया जा सकता है। TirthaMukh, Lampra Puja और Ashokastami original question के distractors हैं और source इस entry में इनके बारे में additional explanation नहीं देता। सबसे important combination याद रखें: Ahom + Assam + Ancestor Worship + 31 January = Me-Dam-Me-Phi। इसलिए विकल्प (a), Me-Dam-Me-Phi, सही उत्तर है।
