Which of the following physiographic sub-regions of the Northern Plains of India is a narrow belt composed of pebble deposits brought down by rivers from the Shiwaliks, where streams frequently disappear under the surface?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Bhabar

Cevap

Bhabar is the narrow belt of pebble deposits lying along the foothills of the Shiwaliks where rivers disappear into porous rock deposits.
Bhabar is a narrow belt of about 8 to 16 km width running parallel to the Shiwalik foothills. It is composed of porous pebble deposits left by streams breaking off from the hills. Due to the high porosity of these boulder and pebble beds, smaller streams sink and flow sub-surface.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the physiographic zones of the Northern Plains from north to south near the foothills.
The zones are ordered as Bhabar at the immediate foothills, followed by Terai to the south, and Bhangar/Khadar along river basins.
Relief features in the Northern Plains vary systematically according to grain size, gradient, and river deposition.
2
Match the specified geological and physical characteristic (narrow pebble belt, river disappearance).
Bhabar is formed by heavy pebble and rock debris deposited by high-velocity streams emerging from the mountains, creating high porosity that causes small streams to flow underground.
Coarse sediment at the slope break creates high porosity.

With reference to the administrative structure of the Gupta Empire in ancient India, consider the following statements:

1. The empire was divided into administrative provinces termed *Bhuktis*, which were placed under the charge of officers called *Uparikas*.
2. Provinces were subdivided into districts called *Vishayas*, governed by *Vishayapatis* who were aided by an advisory council including representatives like the *Nagara-Sresthi* (chief merchant) and *Sarthavaha* (caravan leader).
3. The lowest administrative unit at the village level was managed by the *Gramika* with the assistance of village elders.

Which of the statements given above are correct?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1, 2 and 3

Cevap

1, 2 and 3
All three statements are historically accurate regarding the Gupta administrative framework. The empire was divided into Bhuktis administered by Uparikas. Bhuktis were further split into Vishayas under Vishayapatis, who were assisted by local non-official advisory bodies comprising trade and guild representatives such as the Nagara-Sresthi and Sarthavaha. Village affairs were overseen by the Gramika and local village elders.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Examine Statement 1 regarding provincial administration during the Gupta period.
The Gupta Empire was divided into provinces known as Bhuktis (or Deshas), governed by royal officials titled Uparikas (or Uparika-maharajas). Thus, Statement 1 is correct.
Top-level provincial division allowed decentralized governance across the imperial territories.
2
Analyze Statement 2 concerning district administration and municipal participation.
Bhuktis were subdivided into districts called Vishayas under Vishayapatis. In district headquarters, the Vishayapati worked alongside an advisory council consisting of the Nagara-Sresthi (chief guild president/banker), Sarthavaha (chief merchant/caravan leader), Prathama-Kulika (chief artisan), and Prathama-Kayastha (chief scribe). Thus, Statement 2 is correct.
Gupta district administration integrated local merchant, artisan, and guild representatives into local governance.
3
Verify Statement 3 about village-level governance.
The village was the smallest administrative unit, managed by the Gramika or Gramadhyaksha along with the village council or elders (Gramaviddhas). Thus, Statement 3 is correct.
Grassroots administration relied on local village elders and appointed headmen.

Cevap

The correct sequence of demographic transition stages is: High Stationary Stage → Early Expanding Stage → Late Expanding Stage → Low Stationary Stage.
The Demographic Transition Model traces how human populations transition from high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates as economic development occurs. The sequence begins with the High Stationary Stage, moves to the Early Expanding Stage as mortality drops, transitions to the Late Expanding Stage as fertility drops, and completes at the Low Stationary Stage.

High Stationary Stage is the first phase, marked by high birth and death rates.
Before industrial and healthcare developments, mortality and fertility are both high.
2
Determine the phase of initial healthcare progress.
Early Expanding Stage follows next.
Improvements in public health reduce death rates first while birth rates stay high.
3
Determine the phase of socio-economic adjustment.
Late Expanding Stage is the third phase.
Social changes, female education, and urban life lead to a decline in birth rates.
4
Identify the post-industrial equilibrium stage.
Low Stationary Stage is the final phase.

Cevap

Statements 1 and 2 are correct. The option stating '1 and 2 only' is the correct answer.
The correct answer identifies that Jaduguda (Jharkhand) is indeed India's pioneer commercial uranium mine, and the placer monazite sands of Kerala hold vast Thorium reserves. The statement claiming Khetri produces nuclear-grade uranium is false because Khetri is famous for copper mining.

Cevap: The C. Rajagopalachari Formula (1944) proposed that a commission demarcate contiguous districts in North-West and North-East India where Muslims held an absolute majority, followed by a plebiscite of all inhabitants in those areas to decide on separation.; The Desai-Liaquat Pact (1945) envisaged an interim central executive consisting of equal numbers of persons nominated by the Indian National Congress and the Muslim League, alongside reserved representation for minority groups.

Cevap

The C. Rajagopalachari Formula of 1944 provided a blueprint for cooperation where a post-war boundary commission would identify contiguous Muslim-majority districts in North-Western and North-Eastern India, following which a plebiscite of all adult voters in those districts would decide separation.

Black soil, also known as Regur soil, is extensively distributed across the Deccan Trap region of India. Which of the following commercial crops is most naturally suited for cultivation in this soil type due to its high moisture-retention capacity?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Cotton

Cevap

Cotton is the crop most naturally suited for cultivation in black soil.
Cotton is exceptionally well-suited to black soil (Regur soil) because its high clay content retains subsoil moisture for long durations, sustaining cotton plants through rain-fed dry spells in the Deccan region.

2. The Indigo Commission of 1860 held European planters guilty of oppressive practices and concluded that indigo cultivation was unremunerative for peasants.
3. The revolt directly resulted in the immediate enactment of the Chota Nagpur Tenancy Act to protect peasant land rights.

Which of the statements given above are correct?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1 and 2 only

Cevap

Statements 1 and 2 are correct. The Indigo Revolt began in autumn 1859 in Govindpur village, Nadia district, led by former employees of planters, Digambar Biswas and Bishnu Charan Biswas. In response to widespread resistance, the colonial government appointed the Indigo Commission in 1860, which reported that indigo cultivation was completely unremunerative for the ryots and condemned the coercive methods of European planters. Statement 3 is incorrect because the Chota Nagpur Tenancy Act was passed in 1908 following Birsa Munda's Ulgulan (tribal uprising), not the Indigo Revolt.
The combination stating that statements 1 and 2 only are correct is accurate. The Indigo Revolt (1859–60) started in Nadia district under Digambar and Bishnu Charan Biswas. The 1860 Indigo Commission subsequently validated the peasants' grievances by finding that indigo cultivation was unremunerative and coercive. Statement 3 is false because the Chota Nagpur Tenancy Act was enacted in 1908 in response to Birsa Munda's tribal movement.
