Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) are identified based on criteria including pre-agricultural level of technology, stagnant or declining population, and extremely low literacy.; District-level human development studies demonstrate that higher female literacy strongly correlates with reduced total fertility rates and lower infant mortality rates.

Cevap

The correct statements are that Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) are identified by pre-agricultural technology, low literacy, and stagnant/declining population, and that higher female literacy levels strongly correlate with reduced total fertility rates and improved child survival metrics.
The statements confirming the standard identification criteria for Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs) and the positive socio-demographic impact of female literacy on fertility and infant mortality are factually correct. PVTG criteria include stagnant population, pre-agricultural technology, and low literacy, while female literacy is a core pillar of state human development.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the statement regarding PVTG identification criteria.
The statement accurately reflects the four official criteria established by the Government of India for PVTG identification.
PVTGs are designated using specific socio-economic indicators including pre-agricultural technology, stagnant population, and low literacy.
2
Analyze the definition of Child Sex Ratio.
The statement incorrectly reverses the ratio formula.
Demographic standards measure sex ratio as the number of females per 1,000 males.
3
Assess the impact of female literacy on human development outcomes.
The statement is correct as per Human Development Reports.
Female literacy enhances health awareness, family planning adoption, and child nutrition.
4
Examine the demographic trends comparing urban districts and rural tribal belts.
The statement is incorrect.
Tribal societies traditionally show higher child sex ratios than urban industrial areas.

Cevap: The rebellion was led by Rani Chennamma against the colonial rejection of the adopted heir to the throne of Kittur.

Cevap

The rebellion was led by Rani Chennamma against the colonial rejection of the adopted heir to the throne of Kittur.
The armed struggle of Kittur in 1824 was led by Rani Chennamma following the death of King Malla Sarja's heir. When British administrator St John Thackeray attempted to take over the state treasury and administration by refusing to recognize adopted successor Shivalingappa, Rani Chennamma mobilized armed forces and revolted against East India Company rule.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the primary cause and leadership of the 1824 Kittur Rebellion.
Rani Chennamma of Kittur led an armed resistance in 1824 when St John Thackeray, the Political Agent at Dharwad, rejected the adoption of Shivalingappa after Raja Shivalinga Rudra Sarja's death.
The refusal to accept adopted heirs was an early precursor to annexation policies enforced by the British East India Company.
2
Evaluate the incorrect options against historical chronology and administrative policies.
The Permanent Settlement Act applied to Bengal/Eastern India (1793), the uprising occurred in 1824 (long before 1857), and the rebellion was ultimately suppressed despite heroic resistance.
Eliminating historical inaccuracies confirms the unique significance of Rani Chennamma's anti-colonial resistance.

Statements 1 and 3 are correct, while statement 2 is incorrect.
The combination of statements 1 and 3 is correct. Terah Taali is indeed a devotional folk dance of the Kamada tribe honoring Baba Ramdevji with 13 cymbals, and Garba symbolically revolves around the Garbha Deep representing cosmic life cycles. Statement 2 is false because Bhavai is an unmasked acrobatic folk theater tradition using the Bhungal horn and performed by Targala/Nayak communities rather than Charan bards.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze Statement 1 regarding Terah Taali dance.
Statement 1 is correct. Terah Taali is a unique devotional folk dance of Rajasthan performed by women of the Kamada tribe. The dancers tie thirteen 'manjiras' (brass cymbals) onto their legs and arms, playing them in rhythm while performing intricate movements dedicated to folk hero Baba Ramdevji.

2
Analyze Statement 2 regarding Bhavai performance art.
Statement 2 is incorrect. Bhavai is a popular folk theater form of Gujarat and Rajasthan characterized by unmasked dramatic facial expressions, acrobatic feats (such as balancing multiple brass pots on the head), and musical accompaniment primarily using the 'Bhungal' (long brass horn), double-headed drums, and cymbals. It is traditionally performed by communities like the Targala, Nayak, and Bhojak, not exclusively by the Charan bards.
Identifies erroneous claims about performance medium, instruments, and traditional community patrons.
3

Evaluate Statement 3 regarding forest type classification
Statement 3 is incorrect. The elevation of the park ranges from approximately 1,500 m to over 6,000 m, hosting subtropical pine, temperate broadleaf/coniferous forests (oaks, deodar, fir), subalpine forests, and alpine meadows. Sal (Shorea robusta) is a lowland tropical moist deciduous species not found in this high-altitude Himalayan ecosystem.
Ecological zoning in mountain ranges prohibits tropical moist deciduous forest formations in high alpine regions.
