Songs and Music practice question for SSC. Review the correct answer and explanation, then continue with related practice below.
Which of the following is a regional music of Goa?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
C. MandoC. मांडो
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Mando.
According to the source, Mando, also written as Manddo and represented in the source with its Konkani form, is a musical form that evolved during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries among the Goan Catholics of Goa, India.
The book further describes Mando as representing a meeting point of Indian and Western musical traditions.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Mando
Manddo — Goa — Goan Catholics — evolved during the 19th and 20th centuries — meeting point of Indian and Western musical traditions.
This question is especially important because the previous PYQ discusses Mand or Maand of Rajasthan.
The two names are similar but refer to different traditions according to the source: Mand
Maand — Rajasthan; Mando
Manddo — Goa.
Students should deliberately revise this distinction to avoid an easy examination trap.
Sohar, Pandavani and Lotia are presented as distractors in this question; the source does not explain them here.
The Goan Catholic association and the interaction of Indian and Western traditions provide additional clues that may appear in a future statement-based question.
The source gives a broad historical period—the 19th and 20th centuries—rather than a single date or founder.
Therefore the explanation should preserve that broad framing.
It does not provide specific instruments, composers or occasions in this entry.
Quick revision: Mando
Manddo — Goa — Goan Catholics — 19th–20th centuries — Indian and Western musical traditions.
Therefore option (c), Mando, is correct.
सही उत्तर मांडो है। स्रोत के अनुसार Mando, जिसे Manddo भी लिखा जाता है और जिसका Konkani form भी source में दिया गया है, एक musical form है जो 19th और 20th centuries के दौरान Goa के Goan Catholics के बीच evolve हुआ। Book इसे Indian और Western musical traditions के meeting point के रूप में describe करती है। इसलिए complete source-supported chain है: Mando/Manddo — Goa — Goan Catholics — 19th and 20th Centuries — Indian और Western Musical Traditions का Meeting Point। यह question विशेष रूप से important है क्योंकि previous PYQ में Mand या Maand को Rajasthan से associate किया गया है। दोनों names similar हैं लेकिन source के अनुसार traditions अलग हैं: Mand/Maand — Rajasthan; Mando/Manddo — Goa। इस distinction को deliberately revise करना चाहिए क्योंकि examination में यह easy trap बन सकता है। Sohar, Pandavani और Lotia original question में distractors हैं और source इस entry में उनकी explanation नहीं देती। Goan Catholics association तथा Indian-Western traditions का combination future statement-based question में useful clue हो सकता है। Source एक broad historical period—19th और 20th centuries—देती है, किसी single date या founder का नाम नहीं देती। इसलिए वही framing preserve की गई है। Specific instruments, composers या performance occasions की details source में नहीं हैं। Quick revision: Mando/Manddo — Goa — Goan Catholics — 19th–20th Centuries — Indian + Western Musical Traditions। इसलिए विकल्प (c), मांडो, सही उत्तर है।
