Which state-folk art pair is not correct?
Last Updated:
This previous-year-style question tests Indian culture: “Which state-folk art pair is not correct?” The correct answer is Kalmejuthu - Tamil Nadu. The correct answer is Kalmejuthu - Tamil Nadu. This question belongs to Static GK under Indian and regional dance traditions Indian culture includes classical and folk dances, theatre, puppetry, music, textiles, painting, crafts, fairs, festivals and living ritual traditions. Classical traditions have codified technique and recognised repertoires, while folk and tribal forms are closely linked with local seasons, occupations, worship and community celebrations. Awards and institutional recognition must be matched with the correct artist and year, and UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage status should be stated precisely because it recognises living practices rather than monuments.
