In the series on notable historical figures, a question examines Chhatrapati Shivaji, who is celebrated as the ‘Father of the Indian Navy’ for establishing a robust naval force in an era dominated by European maritime powers. His rise to power was marked by defeating Afzal Khan of the Adilshahi Sultanate, and thus consolidating control over northern ports in the Konkan region. Regarding administrative policies, it’s clarified that the Adnyapatra was authored by Ramchandrapant Amatya, not Shivaji, making statement three incorrect. Hence, the correct answer to the question is option (a).
The quiz also delves into the life of Maulana Hasrat Mohani. Known for his ghazal ‘Chupke Chupke Raat Din’ and coining the revolutionary slogan ‘Inquilab Zindabad’, Mohani, a former Muslim League leader, opted to live in India post-Partition. His significant but swiftly negated proposal during the Constituent Assembly debates called for the inclusion of socialist principles akin to the Soviet Union in India’s Constitution. Consequently, option (d) is the correct choice.
Further questions explore historical figures such as Sufi saints and their order of succession, alongside a look at key tribal rebellions, placing the Dhal Revolt first, followed by the Munda Rebellion and Tana Bhagat Movement, confirming option (c). Lastly, the Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maandhan Yojana is explored, with statement two—detailing its nature as a voluntary, contributory pension scheme—being correct.
