Siliserh Lake is near which city?

Explanation

Siliserh Lake belongs with Alwar, not with Ajmer, Bharatpur or Jaipur. The official Rajasthan Tourism page lists it among the attractions of Alwar and describes it as located southwest of Alwar. Rajasthan Tourism also anchors the historical clue: in 1845, Maharaja Vinay Singh built a hunting palace there for Queen Shila, and that palace has since been converted into an RTDC hotel. For an RAS geography question, the key is the city association: Siliserh Lake is an Alwar site, with its palace-hotel setting making the lake a memorable landmark in the district's tourism geography.

Why the other options are wrong

• (B) Ajmer is associated with Ana Sagar, whereas Siliserh Lake is near Alwar.
• (C) Bharatpur is better known for its wetland landscape, whereas Siliserh Lake is identified with Alwar.
• (D) Jaipur is associated with Man Sagar, not with Siliserh Lake.

Concept

This tests location-based mapping of Rajasthan's lakes and tourist landmarks. Such questions recur in RAS because district-wise association of water bodies, palaces and protected landscapes is a standard part of Rajasthan geography.
