The Hornbill Festival is celebrated in which state?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
C. NagalandC. नागालैंड
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Nagaland.
According to the source, the Hornbill Festival is also known as the 'Festival of Festivals'.
It is celebrated every year in Nagaland from 1 December to 10 December.
The book states that the purpose of the festival is to revive, protect, sustain and promote the richness of Naga heritage and traditions.
Therefore the question provides a highly useful combination for North-East India Static GK: Hornbill Festival — Nagaland — Festival of Festivals — 1 to 10 December — promotion and preservation of Naga heritage and traditions.
This association can be tested in several ways.
An examination may ask the state, the alternative title 'Festival of Festivals', the dates, or the cultural purpose of the celebration.
Assam, Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh are neighbouring North-Eastern states with major cultural festivals of their own, making them strong distractors.
Students should therefore avoid answering merely on the basis that Hornbill belongs to North-East India; the exact state is Nagaland.
The dates supplied by the source are particularly important because they create another straightforward objective question: the festival is held annually from 1 to 10 December.
The explanation also emphasises cultural preservation, using four ideas—revive, protect, sustain and promote—the richness of Naga heritage and traditions.
The source does not provide a venue or detailed programme in this particular entry, so those details have not been added.
Quick revision: Hornbill Festival — Nagaland — Festival of Festivals — 1–10 December — Naga Heritage and Traditions.
Therefore option (c), Nagaland, is correct.
सही उत्तर नागालैंड है। स्रोत के अनुसार Hornbill Festival को 'Festival of Festivals' भी कहा जाता है। यह Nagaland में प्रत्येक वर्ष 1 December से 10 December तक आयोजित होता है। पुस्तक बताती है कि इसका उद्देश्य Naga heritage और traditions की richness को revive, protect, sustain और promote करना है। इसलिए North-East India Static GK के लिए यह बहुत important combination है: Hornbill Festival — Nagaland — Festival of Festivals — 1 से 10 December — Naga Heritage and Traditions का Promotion और Preservation। Competitive examinations इस information को कई forms में पूछ सकते हैं। State पूछा जा सकता है, 'Festival of Festivals' title पूछा जा सकता है, dates पूछी जा सकती हैं या festival का cultural purpose पूछा जा सकता है। Assam, Meghalaya और Arunachal Pradesh neighbouring North-Eastern states हैं और उनकी भी important cultural traditions हैं, इसलिए वे strong distractors हैं। केवल इतना याद रखना कि Hornbill North-East का festival है, पर्याप्त नहीं है; exact state Nagaland याद होना चाहिए। Source द्वारा दी गई 1–10 December की dates भी important हैं। Explanation cultural preservation पर विशेष emphasis करती है—revive, protect, sustain और promote Naga heritage and traditions। Book इस particular entry में venue या detailed programme नहीं देती, इसलिए उन्हें source-derived facts के रूप में नहीं जोड़ा गया है। Quick revision: Hornbill Festival — Nagaland — Festival of Festivals — 1–10 December — Naga Heritage and Traditions। इसलिए विकल्प (c), नागालैंड, सही उत्तर है।
