How many stalls in all does the Mysuru Shilp Samagam Mela 2026 have, and how many of them are allotted to artisans?

  1. A.80 stalls in all, 72 to artisans
  2. B.83 stalls in all, 80 to artisans
  3. C.90 stalls in all, 83 to artisans
  4. D.75 stalls in all, 37 to artisans

Correct answer

B. 83 stalls in all, 80 to artisans

Explanation

The correct answer is 83 stalls in all, 80 to artisans. The Mysuru fair carries 83 stalls, of which 80 have gone to artisans, and 37 of those artisans are women. The craftspeople have come from 12 States and Union Territories, among them Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka, Kerala, Rajasthan, Puducherry, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Telangana, Tamil Nadu and Uttar Pradesh.

Option A reverses the figures: 80 is the number of stalls given to artisans, not the size of the fair. Option D misreads 37, which is the count of women artisans among those 80, as a stall total. Option C inflates both numbers; no figure of that order is on record for this edition. Candidates should hold the three numbers together in the right order, because a paper setter will usually ask for one of them and offer the other two as distractors.
