RAS question
Gaitor ki Chhatriyan is at:
Correct answer: (B) Jaipur.
Gaitor ki Chhatriyan is in Jaipur, where the Gaitore royal cenotaphs commemorate Jaipur's former rulers near the Jaipur-Amber road.
Explanation
Gaitor ki Chhatriyan, also listed by Rajasthan Tourism as Gaitore or the Memorials of Kings, is a Jaipur monument. The official Jaipur destination page places Gaitore just off the Jaipur-Amber road and describes it as the site where the former Maharajas of Jaipur are entombed. The royal chhatris are in Jaipur near the Nahargarh side, and they are memorial structures connected with Kachhwaha rulers. The key clue in the question is therefore not the generic word chhatri, which appears in several Rajasthani contexts, but Gaitor/Gaitore, the Jaipur royal cenotaph complex.
Why the other options are wrong
- (A) Udaipur is wrong because the Rajasthan Tourism Jaipur page places Gaitore on the Jaipur-Amber road, not in Udaipur.
- (C) Jodhpur is wrong because Gaitor/Gaitore is identified with Jaipur on the official Jaipur destination page.
- (D) Bikaner is wrong because the monument asked about is the Jaipur royal cenotaph complex for former Maharajas of Jaipur.
Concept
This tests Rajasthan art and culture through the location of a named royal memorial site. Such questions recur in RAS because monuments, dynastic memory and city-specific heritage are standard factual anchors in Rajasthan history.
