Mrignayani and Poompuhar, two of the emporiums listed on the storefront, belong to which States respectively?

  1. A.Maharashtra and Karnataka
  2. B.Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu
  3. C.Gujarat and Kerala
  4. D.Jharkhand and Odisha

Correct answer

B. Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu

Explanation

The correct answer is Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. Among the ten emporiums whose catalogues make up the collection, Mrignayani is the emporium of Madhya Pradesh and Poompuhar that of Tamil Nadu. Option A names Marhati of Maharashtra and Cauvery of Karnataka, both on the list but not matching these two names. Option C is wrong because Garvi Gurjari is the Gujarat emporium and no Kerala emporium figures among the ten. Option D is wrong because Jharcraft belongs to Jharkhand and Utkalika of Odisha is among the seven bodies still completing their onboarding rather than among the ten already listed. State emporium names are a favourite with paper setters, so it helps to learn them in pairs: Garvi Gurjari with Gujarat, Himcrafts with Himachal Pradesh, Mrignayani with Madhya Pradesh and Poompuhar with Tamil Nadu.
