Where is the Balachadi Polish Children's Camp Memorial located?

  1. A.Jamnagar, Gujarat
  2. B.Kolhapur, Maharashtra
  3. C.Porbandar, Gujarat
  4. D.Nashik, Maharashtra

Correct answer

A. Jamnagar, Gujarat

Explanation

The correct answer is Jamnagar in Gujarat. The Balachadi memorial commemorates the shelter, schooling and medical care that Maharaja Jam Saheb Digvijaysinhji Ranjitsinhji Jadeja provided to Polish children displaced during the Second World War, and the visiting delegation treated it as the high point of the week. Option B, Kolhapur in Maharashtra, is a close distractor because the delegation did go there, but Kolhapur is the site of the Valivade Polish Refugee Camp Memorial, a different memorial marking refuge given to thousands of Polish refugees. Option C, Porbandar in Gujarat, is wrong; the group visited Kirti Mandir there, the birthplace of Mahatma Gandhi. Option D, Nashik in Maharashtra, is wrong and did not figure in the itinerary. Keep the pair straight: Balachadi with Jamnagar, Valivade with Kolhapur.
