The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education (RBSE) is headquartered at:

Explanation

RBSE stands for the Board of Secondary Education, Rajasthan. Its headquarters is in Ajmer, as confirmed by the board's official contact page, which lists the Secretary under "Board of Secondary Education Rajasthan, Ajmer." This matches the role given in the question explanation: RBSE conducts the Class 10 and Class 12 board examinations, so the headquarters question is asking for the administrative location of the state board, not the state's capital or another major education centre. For RAS preparation, the point to remember is direct and factual: Rajasthan's secondary education board is associated with Ajmer.

Why the other options are wrong

• (A) Jodhpur is associated with the Rajasthan High Court, but the RBSE headquarters is listed by the board itself at Ajmer.
• (C) Kota is known as a coaching hub, but that does not make it the headquarters of the Board of Secondary Education, Rajasthan.
• (D) Jaipur is Rajasthan's state capital, but the official RBSE contact page places the board at Ajmer, not Jaipur.

Concept

This tests Rajasthan's administrative institutions and their headquarters, a recurring RAS fact area because exam questions often distinguish between the state capital and the actual seat of a department or board. RBSE is a standard example because its headquarters is Ajmer.
