The original question-specific evidence states: Dockyard is associated with Lothal. Lothal is the correct answer to “Which Harappan site is known for dockyard”. This evidence connects the required Ancient History fact with its archaeological, geographical, cultural or chronological setting. Harappan evidence must be interpreted from excavated settlements, artefacts, environmental data and comparisons among sites; a single object should not automatically support a wider claim than the evidence permits. The choices Manda, Kuntasi and Rakhigarhi do not satisfy the same combination of site, feature, river region, crop, craft, discovery, chronology or cultural association. A distractor may be historically important in another context but still be wrong for the relationship asked here. A reliable check begins by identifying the question type: location, site feature, archaeological find, economic activity, urban planning, chronology or interpretation. Then compare the chosen answer with the relevant NCERT theme and reject options belonging to another site or category. Replaying that method confirms Lothal as the keyed response for this Ancient History question. This evidence-led approach strengthens factual recall, chronological caution and option elimination for SSC, Railway, Banking, Defence, State and other competitive examinations.
