Q1. Who is the author of the song ‘Dharti Dhoran Ri’?
A Kanhaiya Lal Sethia Correct
B Vijaydan Detha
C Allah Jilai Bai
D Gavari Devi
Explanation
‘Dharti Dhoran Ri’ is a celebrated Rajasthani song written by Kanhaiya Lal Sethia, whose literary work is closely associated with Rajasthan’s cultural identity. Vijaydan Detha is famous for Rajasthani stories and folklore-based writing, not as the author of this song. Allah Jilai Bai was a noted folk singer, especially remembered for Maand singing. Gavari Devi was also a well-known singer, not the writer of ‘Dharti Dhoran Ri’. The question asks for authorship, so Sethia is the precise match.
