Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Ambubachi Mela.
According to the source, Ambubachi Mela is one of the biggest congregations of Eastern India and is the most important festival of Kamakhya Temple in Guwahati, Assam.
It is celebrated in June every year.
The question identifies it by the title 'Mahakumbh of the East'.
The source further explains that 'Ambubachi' means 'spoken with water' and states that the rains expected during this month make the earth fertile and ready for procreation.
Therefore this question adds several useful facts to the earlier Ambubachi questions in the book.
The complete source-based revision chain is: Ambubachi Mela — Mahakumbh of the East — Kamakhya Temple — Guwahati — Assam — June — one of the biggest congregations of Eastern India — source meaning 'spoken with water' — rains and fertility of the earth.
Earlier PYQs in the same book also identify Ambubachi as an annual Hindu mela held at Kamakhya Temple during the monsoon season.
The repeated appearance of this festival indicates that it is a high-frequency SSC Static GK topic.
Hornbill Festival, Moatsu Mong and Bihu Festival are distractors; the specific title in this question belongs to Ambubachi Mela according to the source.
Students should particularly remember Kamakhya Temple because temple-festival matching is frequently tested.
Quick revision: Ambubachi — Assam — Guwahati — Kamakhya — June — Mahakumbh of the East.
Therefore option (c), Ambubachi Mela, is correct.
