Correct Answerसही उत्तर
C. Jammu and KashmirC. जम्मू और कश्मीर
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Jammu and Kashmir.
According to the source, Chakri is one of the most popular types of traditional music played in Jammu and Kashmir.
The book describes Chakri as a responsorial song form containing instrumental parts and provides a detailed list of instruments used with it: harmonium, rubab, sarangi, nout, geger, tumbaknaer and chimta.
This makes the question particularly valuable because it tests both regional music and associated instrumentation.
The main state association is Chakri — Jammu and Kashmir.
The form association is Chakri — responsorial song form, while the instrument association includes harmonium, rubab, sarangi, nout, geger, tumbaknaer and chimta.
Competitive examinations can use any of these features as a clue in future questions.
Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Punjab have major folk and classical traditions but are not identified by the source as the home of Chakri.
Students should therefore build a music-state map rather than relying on broad geographical intuition.
Nearby questions in the book make such a map especially useful: Bhawaiya — West Bengal; Chakri — Jammu and Kashmir; Dhenka — Odisha; Ghumot — Goa.
The source does not discuss the language, history, themes or occasions of Chakri performance beyond describing it as a traditional responsorial song form with instrumental parts.
Those unsupported details should not be added.
Quick revision chain: Chakri — Jammu and Kashmir — Traditional Music — Responsorial Song Form — Harmonium, Rubab, Sarangi, Nout, Geger, Tumbaknaer and Chimta.
Therefore option (c), Jammu and Kashmir, is correct.
सही उत्तर जम्मू और कश्मीर है। स्रोत के अनुसार Chakri Jammu and Kashmir में played होने वाले सबसे popular traditional music forms में से एक है। पुस्तक Chakri को responsorial song form बताती है जिसमें instrumental parts भी होते हैं। Source इसके साथ प्रयुक्त instruments की detailed list भी देती है: harmonium, rubab, sarangi, nout, geger, tumbaknaer और chimta। इसलिए यह question केवल state-music matching नहीं है; इससे music form और instruments पर भी questions बनाए जा सकते हैं। Main state association है: Chakri — Jammu and Kashmir। Form association है: Chakri — Responsorial Song Form। Instrument cluster: Harmonium — Rubab — Sarangi — Nout — Geger — Tumbaknaer — Chimta। Competitive exams इनमें से किसी detail को clue के रूप में use कर सकते हैं। Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh और Punjab की भी strong folk/classical traditions हैं, लेकिन source Chakri को उनसे नहीं जोड़ती। इसलिए state-wise music map बनाना useful है। Nearby questions से इसे group करें: Bhawaiya — West Bengal; Chakri — Jammu and Kashmir; Dhenka — Odisha; Ghumot — Goa। Source Chakri की language, detailed history, lyrical themes या occasions की जानकारी इस entry में नहीं देती, इसलिए उन्हें book-derived facts के रूप में नहीं जोड़ा गया है। Quick revision chain: Chakri — Jammu and Kashmir — Traditional Music — Responsorial Song Form — Harmonium, Rubab, Sarangi, Nout, Geger, Tumbaknaer, Chimta। इसलिए विकल्प (c), जम्मू और कश्मीर, सही उत्तर है।
