Q66 (IAS/2000) History & Culture › Culture, Literature, Religion & Philosophy › Modern Indian literature Answer Verified

Which one of the following pairs is not correctly matched ?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D
Explanation

Option 4 is not correctly matched. "Giddha" is a Punjabi folk dance form, not a theatrical play directed or authored by Jabbar Patel; sources explicitly note that Giddha is a folk form and not a play associated with Patel. The other three pairs are standard attributions in modern Indian theatre: Sita Swayamvar is linked with Vishnu Das (Vishnudas) Bhave and Yayati is a play by Girish Karnad, as indicated in the provided material [1]. Baki Itihas is listed in the same set of play–author pairings with Badal Sarkar in the referenced quiz material. Therefore the mismatched pair is Giddha — Jabbar Patel (option 4).
