Q82 (IAS/1999) Geography › World Human & Economic Geography › World ethnic groups Answer Verified

Which one of the following pairs of states and tribes is not correctly matched?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D
Explanation

Option 4 is the incorrect match. The other three pairs are correctly associated with the states: the Miri (Mising) are a recognised tribal group of Assam; the Konyak are a major Naga tribe in Nagaland [1]; and the Apatani are an indigenous tribe of Arunachal Pradesh, noted in ethnographic accounts of the region. By contrast, the Lambada (Lambadi/Banjara) are traditionally associated with regions such as Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra rather than being a principal tribal group of Madhya Pradesh, so Madhya Pradesh: Lambada is not correctly matched.
