Jambheshwar (Jambhoji) founded which sect?

Explanation

Jambheshwar, or Jambhoji, is associated with the Bishnoi sect, not with the Ramsnahi, Dadu Panth or Jasnathi traditions. He belongs to the period 1451-1536, and the name Bishnoi comes from its 29 rules: bish meaning 20 and noi meaning 9. That rule-based identity is also why the sect is remembered for environmental conservation. The official Rajasthan Tourism page for Phalodi supports the core identification by describing Jambholav Dham in Jamba village as the main pilgrimage site of Guru Shri Jambheshwar and explicitly calling him the founder of the Bishnoi sect. So the question is testing a direct founder-sect match: Jambheshwar or Jambhoji maps to Bishnoi.

Why the other options are wrong

• (A) Ramsnahi does not match Jambheshwar because Ramsnahi is associated with Ram Charan.
• (B) Dadu Panth is wrong here because Dadu Dayal, not Jambheshwar, is identified as its founder.
• (C) Jasnathi is a different Rajasthan sect, linked to Jasnathji rather than to Jambheshwar.

Concept

This tests Rajasthan's religious sects and folk-cultural movements through founder-sect association. It recurs in RAS because such direct pairings are standard in Rajasthan History, Art and Culture MCQs.
