Hello All,

The Group usage here is a little cumbersome, so I am creating this thread to make sure that all questions with doubts stay in one place. Can someone push all the doubts and queries here? I will make this an announcement?

There are two kind of sources on internet.

1. Patiala Gharana - wikipedia+sources quoting word-by-word wikipedia (hard to be called authentic), and NDTV article.

2. Qawwal Bachhon ka gharana - most prominent source attached in quoted comment. Read 2-3 interviews more, none quoted both gharana even while talking about gharanas.

Didn't realise that it is such a debatable option while answering.

Can't think what to be believed authentic in this case. An interview is perhaps closest to being called an authentic data.

Kindly enlighten, which one to be deemed conclusive.

There are various sources with different information. However, since Nusrat Sahab himself mentions his Gharana it's difficult to refute it and hence I have changed the answer. By the way, Qawwal Bachho ka Gharana is a subset of Delhi Gharana of Hindustani music.

Please don't push the logic too much. The question is asking Dhrupad originated in Temples and hence the statement stands true. Dhrupad is originated in the north Indian temple and then some of its components can be traced to Samveda. Further, as Samveda is the earliest book of the music any kind of music or its form can be traced to it.

Sir w.r.t Question no 31 of test 25.

Option 3 is marked as incorrect..

However it's correct since 6 indian cities are members of C40.

.

In various news articles that came in October regarding this news,they were factually incorrect and this is from the official website of c40 itself.

Thanks

Detection instrument was CLASS and it detected charged particles with the help of Geotail.

Certainly the option specifically mentions "Helped".
