The scale model of the Meghadambari in the auction collection belongs to which fort?
- A.Sinhagad Fort
- B.Raigad Fort
- C.Pratapgad Fort
- D.Panhala Fort
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Raigad Fort. Along with a silver statue, a woodcut portrait and a framed artwork, the collection includes a scale model of the Meghadambari at Raigad Fort, a structure tied to the memory of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Options A, C and D name other well-known forts of the same region, but the model in this catalogue is of the Meghadambari at Raigad, so they are wrong. The Shivaji theme also runs through statues showing the ruler on horseback, on a throne, beside a lion and in ceremonial settings. Aspirants should remember the pairing of the Meghadambari with Raigad, since forts are a favourite area for questions in state and central examinations alike. The same catalogue also carries portraits and sculptures of Dr B. R. Ambedkar, Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Ahilyabai Holkar and Peshwa Bajirao I.
