Tribe State
1. Limboo (Limbu) Sikkim
2. Karbi Himachal Pradesh
3. Dongaria Kondh Odisha
4. Bonda Tamil Nadu

Which of the above pairs are correctly matched?

  1. 1 and 3 only
  2. 2 and 4 only
  3. 1, 3 and 4 only
  4. 1, 2, 3 and 4

Answer

1 and 3 only

The earlier conclusion was due to an incomplete question image/text: the actual tribe–state pairs were not provided, so factual verification was impossible from the prompt alone. Since UPSC’s official answer key gives (a), the revised answer is (a). Disclaimer: without the missing pairs/options, I cannot independently verify each item; this revision aligns with the official key rather than fresh factual analysis.
