{'sindhis': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'traditions': [0, 0, 0, 4], 'santhals': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'warkari': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'none': [2, 0, 8, 15]}

The Chaliha Sahib Festival is indeed a prominent festival celebrated by the Sindhi community, principally in the Sindh region. Thus, pair 1 is correctly matched.

Nanda Raj Jaat Yatra, meanwhile, is incorrectly matched with the Gonds. This Yatra is a religious and cultural festival of the people in the Uttarakhand state of India, primarily associated with the Garhwal community, not the Gonds.

The Wari-Warkari tradition is associated with the Maratha community in Maharashtra, and not the Santhals as indicated in the question. Hence, pair 3 is not correctly matched.

Therefore, among the given options, only pair 1 (Chaliha Sahib Festival — Sindhis) is correctly matched, making `1 only` the correct option for this question.
