Correct Answerसही उत्तर
D. OdishaD. ओडिशा
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Odisha.
According to the source, Daskathia is a traditional Odia folk art and its performance is usually a form of ballad singing.
The book gives several additional details that are highly useful for examination preparation.
During the performance, the performers use a pair of wooden instruments to create music.
The source says that the performance is usually carried out by two people.
The person who leads the performance is called the 'Gayyaka', while the accompanying or following performer is called the 'Palia'.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Daskathia — Odisha — traditional Odia folk art — ballad singing — usually two performers — Gayyaka as the leader — Palia as the accompanying performer — pair of wooden instruments used to create music.
These details can easily be converted into several future MCQs.
An examination may ask the state, the type of singing, the number of performers, or the names Gayyaka and Palia.
Sikkim, Telangana and Goa are distractors in the original question and are not associated with Daskathia in this source.
Because the term is less familiar than many major folk forms, remembering the word 'Odia' directly with Daskathia is useful.
The source does not identify the exact material, dimensions or names of the wooden instruments beyond calling them a pair of wooden instruments.
It also does not provide a historical origin date or specific district.
Those details have therefore not been added.
Quick revision: Daskathia — Odisha — Traditional Odia Folk Art — Ballad Singing — Two Performers — Gayyaka + Palia — Wooden Instruments.
Therefore option (d), Odisha, is correct.
सही उत्तर ओडिशा है। स्रोत के अनुसार Daskathia एक traditional Odia folk art है और इसका performance सामान्यतः ballad singing अर्थात गाथागीत गायन के रूप में होता है। Book इस question के साथ कई additional facts देती है जो competitive examinations के लिए बहुत important हैं। Performance में कलाकार music create करने के लिए wooden instruments की एक pair का उपयोग करते हैं। Source के अनुसार यह performance सामान्यतः two people द्वारा किया जाता है। जो व्यक्ति lead करता है उसे 'Gayyaka' कहा जाता है और उसके साथ follow करने वाले performer को 'Palia' कहा जाता है। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Daskathia — Odisha — Traditional Odia Folk Art — Ballad Singing — Usually Two Performers — Gayyaka = Leader — Palia = Accompanying Performer — Pair of Wooden Instruments। इन facts से अलग-अलग MCQs बनाए जा सकते हैं। Exam state पूछ सकता है, singing form पूछ सकता है, performers की संख्या पूछ सकता है या Gayyaka और Palia के roles पूछ सकता है। Sikkim, Telangana और Goa original question के distractors हैं और source उन्हें Daskathia से associate नहीं करती। Daskathia comparatively कम familiar term है, इसलिए इसे सीधे 'Odia folk art' के साथ याद करना helpful है। Source wooden instruments के exact names, dimensions या detailed construction नहीं बताती। Historical origin date या specific district भी नहीं दिया गया है। इसलिए ऐसी outside details नहीं जोड़ी गई हैं। Quick revision: Daskathia — Odisha — Folk Art — Ballad Singing — Two Performers — Gayyaka + Palia — Wooden Instruments। इसलिए विकल्प (d), ओडिशा, सही उत्तर है।
