Practice questions

Q1In which of the following tribes are the marriages named Tanna and Mor Bandhiya prevalent?

A Sansi
B Meena
C Bhil
D Garasia
Explanation

Tanna and Mor Bandhiya are marriage forms associated with the Garasia tribe, especially in the tribal customs of southern Rajasthan. Sansi is known as a separate nomadic community and is not identified by these marriage names. Meena has its own social and marriage customs, but these two terms are not its standard association. Bhil is a major tribal community of Rajasthan, yet the named forms in the stem specifically point to Garasia customary practice.

Q2Given below are two statements: Statement (I): Sansi is a nomadic tribe mostly found in Bharatpur district. Statement (II): The two divisions of Sansi are Vija and Mava. In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

A Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
B Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
C Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
D Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
Explanation

The Sansi community is treated in Rajasthan GK as a nomadic tribe associated notably with Bharatpur district, so the first statement is accepted as correct in this paper. The second statement is also accepted because the paper identifies Vija and Mava as the two divisions of Sansi. Therefore, the response saying both statements are correct matches the official key. The responses saying both are incorrect, only the first is correct, or only the second is correct each reject one or both statements and do not fit the official answer.

Q3The 'Kathodi' tribe is mainly found in which of the following districts?

A Dungarpur
B Banswara
C Udaipur
D Kota
Explanation

The Kathodi tribe in Rajasthan is mainly associated with Udaipur district, especially the tribal belt of southern Rajasthan. Dungarpur and Banswara also fall in the broader south Rajasthan tribal region, so they are plausible distractors, but the standard location asked for Kathodi is Udaipur. Kota lies in the Hadoti region and is not the main district associated with the Kathodi tribe. The item therefore tests a specific tribe-district association rather than the general presence of tribal communities in southern Rajasthan.
