Question

[PASSAGE] 'Kalagram', the cultural village set up at the Maha Kumbh Mela, unfolded as a mosaic of India's diverse regions, each represented by seven meticulously crafted 'Sanskriti Angans'—stepping through the grand portal was like entering another world. These thematic zones, inspired by iconic temples like the Dakshineshwar Kali Temple and the Brahma Mandir, were treasure troves of regional artistry. Bengal's Pattachitra paintings, Assam's bamboo crafts, Tamil Nadu's Thanjavur paintings, and Madhya Pradesh's tribal sculpture all were showcased in these living galleries where 230 master artisans breathed life into them using age-old techniques, their hands shaping India's ancient history into creations to behold.

[QUESTION] Which of the following conclusions are valid?

1Seven Sanskriti Angans, representing different regions of India, had been showcased in Kalagram.

2Regional artistry was recognised via the inspiration drawn from iconic temples.

3India's ancient history had been crafted by the contemporary craftsmanship of 230 artisans into creations to behold.

4Art forms from all regions of India had been showcased in these living galleries.

Options

1 and 2 only

2, 3 and 4

1, 2 and 4

1 and 3

Answer

Explanation

Let us check each conclusion carefully against the provided text details:

Conclusion 1 is valid: The text explicitly notes that the cultural village featured 'seven meticulously crafted Sanskriti Angans' representing diverse regions .

Conclusion 2 is invalid: The text mentions that the thematic zones were inspired by temples [cite: 5037, 5097], but it does not claim that the regional artwork itself gained its recognition through those temple designs.

Conclusion 3 is valid: The passage explicitly states that '230 master artisans breathed life into them... shaping India's ancient history into creations to behold' .

Conclusion 4 is invalid: The text uses the word 'all' , but the passage only lists specific regional examples (Bengal, Assam, Tamil Nadu, Madhya Pradesh) , making a claim about all regions an absolute overreach.

Since conclusions 1 and 3 are valid, option (d) is the correct choice.

Reading comprehension choices containing extreme absolute modifiers like 'all' must be verified carefully against the text to avoid overgeneralization traps.

Answer: (d).
