RAS question
In Rajasthan fair lists, Mukam is specifically associated with the fair of which saint?
Correct answer: (A) Jambheshwarji.
Mukam is specifically associated with the fair of Guru Jambheshwar Ji, also listed in the option as Jambheshwarji.
Explanation
Mukam is not being used here as a generic fair site in Bikaner district; the District Disaster Management Plan 2025, Bikaner names a specific entry, "Fair of Guru Jambheshwar Ji in Mukam". That is why the answer is Jambheshwarji. Other fairs follow separate place-saint pairings: Karni Mata is listed at Deshnok, Kapil Muni Ji at Kolayat, and Khwaja Sahib's fair is linked with Ajmer. For RAS purposes, the important skill is to remember the exact fair-place association, not just the broader district or pilgrimage tradition.
Why the other options are wrong
- (B) Karni Mata is a real fair entry, but her fair is placed at Deshnok rather than at Mukam.
- (C) Kapil Muni is also a real fair entry, but it is linked with Kolayat, not Mukam.
- (D) Khwaja Sahib is not the Mukam association; that fair is linked with Ajmer.
Concept
This tests Rajasthan fair-site mapping under History, Art and Culture. Such pairings recur in RAS because they check precise recognition of local religious fairs and their associated places.
