'Marfati' songs are traditional folk songs of ______.
Correct Answerसही उत्तर
B. BangladeshB. बांग्लादेश
Explanationव्याख्या
The correct answer is Bangladesh.
According to the source, 'Marfati' songs are traditional folk songs of Bangladesh.
The explanation in the book is brief and does not provide further information about their musical style, language, themes, instruments, performers or historical background.
Therefore the main source-supported association should be preserved in its simple form: Marfati Songs — Bangladesh — Traditional Folk Songs.
This question is an example of World GK overlapping with cultural and musical knowledge.
Although the previous section dealt with Indian folk music, here the geographical focus shifts to another country.
Afghanistan, Pakistan and Nepal are distractors in the original question.
Students should therefore learn international folk traditions in the same way they learn Indian state-wise folk traditions: as clear location-cultural-form pairs.
Since the book gives no additional supporting facts in this entry, adding extensive cultural information from outside sources would change the requested source-based nature of this project.
The safest exam revision is therefore direct: 'Marfati' → Bangladesh.
This can be asked in reverse form as well: Which country's traditional folk songs are called Marfati? — Bangladesh.
The proximity of this question to the next one about Kazi Nazrul Islam is also useful because both Q606 and Q607 have Bangladesh as the correct country.
However, the facts are different and should remain separate: Marfati refers to traditional folk songs, while Kazi Nazrul Islam is identified as the national poet of Bangladesh.
Quick revision: Marfati Songs — Traditional Folk Songs — Bangladesh.
Therefore option (b), Bangladesh, is correct.
सही उत्तर बांग्लादेश है। स्रोत के अनुसार 'Marfati' songs Bangladesh के traditional folk songs हैं। Book की explanation बहुत brief है और इसमें musical style, language, themes, instruments, performers या historical background की additional details नहीं दी गई हैं। इसलिए main source-supported association को simple form में ही preserve करना चाहिए: Marfati Songs — Bangladesh — Traditional Folk Songs। यह question World GK और cultural/music knowledge का combination है। Previous section में Indian folk music था, जबकि यहां geographical focus दूसरे country पर shift हो गया है। Afghanistan, Pakistan और Nepal original question में distractors हैं। International folk traditions को भी Indian state-wise traditions की तरह clear location-cultural-form pairs में याद करना useful है। क्योंकि source इस entry में extra facts नहीं देती, outside knowledge से बहुत सारी information जोड़ना इस source-based project की nature बदल देगा। इसलिए safest revision है: Marfati → Bangladesh। Future exam में reverse form आ सकता है: किस देश के traditional folk songs को Marfati कहा जाता है? Answer — Bangladesh। यह question next Kazi Nazrul Islam question के पास है और दोनों में Bangladesh correct country है, लेकिन दोनों facts अलग रखें। Marfati = Traditional Folk Songs; Kazi Nazrul Islam = National Poet of Bangladesh। Quick revision: Marfati Songs — Traditional Folk Songs — Bangladesh। इसलिए विकल्प (b), बांग्लादेश, सही उत्तर है।
