'Khuang' is a traditional musical instrument of which state?
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
D. MizoramD. मिजोरम
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Mizoram.
According to the source, Khuang is a traditional musical instrument of Mizoram.
The book identifies Khuang specifically as a drum and explains its basic construction.
It is made from a hollow tree and is wrapped on both sides with animal skin.
Therefore the key source-supported association is: Khuang — Mizoram — Drum — Hollow Tree — Animal Skin on Both Sides.
This makes the question valuable because it can be tested not only as a state-instrument pair but also through the instrument's physical description.
If a future question describes a traditional drum made from a hollow tree with both sides covered by animal skin, Khuang should be recalled.
Jharkhand, West Bengal and Assam are distractors here.
All belong to regions with rich folk traditions, so precise state-wise knowledge is necessary.
This question also continues a recurring pattern in the book, where musical instruments such as Dhenka, Ghumot, Mahuri and Khuang are matched with particular states.
A useful revision sequence from the source is Dhenka — Odisha; Ghumot — Goa; Mahuri — Odisha; Khuang — Mizoram.
Students should not merge the construction facts of one instrument with another.
The source does not give the exact tree species, dimensions, playing technique, community name or ceremonial occasion associated with Khuang in this entry.
Those details have therefore not been introduced as source-derived facts.
Quick revision: Khuang — Mizoram — Traditional Drum — Hollow Tree — Animal Skin on Both Sides.
Therefore option (d), Mizoram, is correct.
सही उत्तर मिजोरम है। स्रोत के अनुसार Khuang Mizoram का traditional musical instrument है। Book इसे specifically drum बताती है और इसकी basic construction भी explain करती है। Source के अनुसार यह hollow tree अर्थात खोखले वृक्ष/लकड़ी से बनाया जाता है और इसके दोनों sides पर animal skin लपेटी जाती है। इसलिए important source-supported chain है: Khuang — Mizoram — Drum — Hollow Tree — Both Sides Covered with Animal Skin। यह question केवल state-instrument matching के लिए useful नहीं है; instrument की physical description से भी future question बन सकता है। यदि exam में traditional drum का description दिया जाए जो hollow tree से बना हो और दोनों sides animal skin से covered हों, तो Khuang याद होना चाहिए। Jharkhand, West Bengal और Assam distractors हैं। इन सभी regions की strong folk traditions हैं, इसलिए exact state association जरूरी है। Book में instruments के state-based questions लगातार आते हैं। Revision sequence रखें: Dhenka — Odisha; Ghumot — Goa; Mahuri — Odisha; Khuang — Mizoram। एक instrument की construction facts को दूसरे instrument के साथ mix नहीं करना चाहिए। Source इस entry में exact tree species, dimensions, playing technique, associated community या ceremonial occasion नहीं बताती। इसलिए ऐसी details source-derived facts के रूप में नहीं जोड़ी गई हैं। Quick revision: Khuang — Mizoram — Traditional Drum — Hollow Tree — Animal Skin on Both Sides। इसलिए विकल्प (d), मिजोरम, सही उत्तर है।
