Explanationव्याख्या

The correct answer is Nepal.
According to the source, Dashain, also known as Bijaya Dashami, is the grandest, longest and most auspicious festival in Nepal.
The book states that it takes place during the Nepali month of Ashwin, corresponding broadly to September–October in the solar calendar, and lasts for 15 days.
Therefore the complete source-supported revision chain is: Dashain — Nepal — also known as Bijaya Dashami — grandest festival — longest festival — most auspicious festival — Nepali Ashwin month — September to October in the solar calendar — duration of 15 days.
This is much richer than a simple country-festival question and offers several possible examination angles.
A future question may ask the country, alternate name, month or duration.
Bangladesh, Bhutan and Sri Lanka are distractors in the original MCQ.
The source clearly identifies Nepal.
Students should also link this question with Q605, where Janko
Janku is another Nepalese cultural custom described as a celebration of life.
However, the two should remain separate: Janko is a cultural custom, while Dashain is described by the source as Nepal's grandest, longest and most auspicious festival.
The book uses the spelling 'Bijaya Dashami', which has been preserved.
The source does not provide detailed religious rituals, deities, ceremonial sequence or regional variations in this explanation.
Therefore those details have not been added as book-derived facts.
Quick revision: Dashain = Nepal; Bijaya Dashami; Ashwin; September–October; 15 days; grandest, longest and most auspicious according to the source.
Therefore option (d), Nepal, is correct.

सही उत्तर नेपाल है। स्रोत के अनुसार Dashain, जिसे Bijaya Dashami भी कहा जाता है, Nepal का grandest, longest और most auspicious festival है। Book बताती है कि यह Nepali Ashwin month में होता है, जो Solar Calendar में लगभग September से October के बीच आता है, और यह 15 days तक चलता है। इसलिए complete source-supported revision chain है: Dashain — Nepal — Also Known as Bijaya Dashami — Grandest Festival — Longest Festival — Most Auspicious Festival — Nepali Ashwin — September to October — Duration 15 Days। यह केवल country-festival matching question नहीं है; इससे alternate name, month और duration पर भी questions बन सकते हैं। Bangladesh, Bhutan और Sri Lanka distractors हैं। Source clearly Nepal को identify करती है। इसे Q605 के Janko/Janku से भी compare किया जा सकता है क्योंकि वह भी Nepal की cultural tradition है। लेकिन दोनों को अलग रखें: Janko = Celebration of Life cultural custom; Dashain = source के अनुसार Nepal का grandest, longest और most auspicious festival। Book 'Bijaya Dashami' spelling use करती है, इसलिए वही preserve की गई है। Source detailed religious rituals, deities, ceremonial sequence या regional variations नहीं देती, इसलिए outside facts नहीं जोड़े गए हैं। Quick revision: Dashain = Nepal — Bijaya Dashami — Ashwin — September–October — 15 Days — Grandest/Longest/Most Auspicious। इसलिए विकल्प (d), नेपाल, सही उत्तर है।
