Category: Miscellaneous Indian Gk

Correct Answer: A) Only 2,.

Exam Relevance: UPSC Civil Services, SSC CGL, State PSC Exams, Bank PO Exams

Difficulty: Moderate

Concept notes:

This question tests the knowledge of geographical locations and historical texts. Juhu Beach is a famous beach in Mumbai, not Delhi. Fakhri-i Mudabbir wrote about the Circle of Justice, a concept in medieval Islamic governance. Qutb Minar is a minaret and not a mosque, located in Delhi.

Common Mistakes:
  • Confusing the location of Juhu Beach with other landmarks in India.
  • Misunderstanding the nature of Qutb Minar as a mosque instead of a minaret.
  • Not knowing the author of the Circle of Justice.
Explanation:

To understand the correct answer, we need to analyze each statement individually:

1. **Juhu Beach is located in Delhi**: This statement is false. Juhu Beach is a famous beach located in Mumbai, not Delhi. Mumbai is a major city in the western part of India, while Delhi is in the northern part. Juhu Beach is known for its long stretch of sand and is a popular tourist destination in Mumbai.

2. **Fakhri-i Mudabbir wrote the Circle of Justice**: This statement is true. Fakhri-i Mudabbir, a Persian scholar and historian, wrote extensively about the Circle of Justice, a concept in medieval Islamic governance. The Circle of Justice describes the ideal relationship between a ruler and his subjects, emphasizing the ruler's responsibility to maintain justice and the subjects' duty to obey.

3. **Qutb Minar is a famous mosque in Delhi**: This statement is false. Qutb Minar is a minaret and not a mosque. It is located in Delhi and is one of the tallest minarets in the world. Qutb Minar was built in the early 13th century and is part of the Qutb complex, which includes several other historical structures. The nearby Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque is the actual mosque in the complex.

The correct answer is (A) Only 2, because only the second statement about Fakhri-i Mudabbir is true. The first statement about Juhu Beach and the third statement about Qutb Minar are both false. Understanding the geographical locations and historical contexts of these landmarks and texts is crucial for answering such questions accurately.

Option Analysis:
  • Option A: This option is correct. The only true statement among the given options is that Fakhri-i Mudabbir wrote the Circle of Justice. Juhu Beach is not located in Delhi, and Qutb Minar is not a mosque.
  • Option B: This option is incorrect. While Fakhri-i Mudabbir did write the Circle of Justice, Juhu Beach is not located in Delhi. This option incorrectly includes the first statement, which is false.
  • Option C: This option is incorrect. It incorrectly includes all three statements, but only the second statement about Fakhri-i Mudabbir is true. Juhu Beach is not in Delhi, and Qutb Minar is not a mosque.
  • Option D: This option is incorrect. It incorrectly includes the third statement, which is false. Qutb Minar is a minaret, not a mosque. The second statement about Fakhri-i Mudabbir is true, but the inclusion of the false statement about Qutb Minar makes this option incorrect.
