In which State of India is the Harappan Civilization site Mandi situated ?

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D

Explanation

The Harappan civilization site Mandi is located in the Muzaffarnagar district of Uttar Pradesh. It is primarily recognized as a Late Harappan site.

  • Mandi gained significant archaeological attention in May 2000 when a massive hoard of Harappan jewelry, including gold ornaments, semi-precious stone beads, and copper containers, was discovered in a field.
  • It is crucial to distinguish Mandi (Uttar Pradesh) from Manda, which is the northernmost Harappan site situated on the banks of the Chenab River in Jammu and Kashmir.
  • Other notable Harappan sites in Uttar Pradesh include Alamgirpur (the easternmost extent of the civilization) and Hulas.

Given its location in the Muzaffarnagar district, the correct option is Uttar Pradesh.
