Matching Ancient Departments with Subjects

This question requires matching the names of specific departments or administrative/educational centers (List I) from ancient Indian context with their associated subjects or functions (List II).

Department-Subject Associations

A. Vishnu Sthana
The name 'Vishnu', often associated with the preserver and upholder of cosmic order, typically relates to matters of governance and statecraft. Therefore, it aligns with Politics (III).
B. Vivasta Sthana
The term 'Vivasta' can be linked to concepts of time, destiny, or celestial movements. This suggests a connection to the study of stars and predictions, i.e., Jyotish (II).
C. Garun Sthana
Garuda, the swift divine eagle mount of Vishnu, symbolizes rapid movement and efficiency. This association points towards the domain of Travel and Transport (IV).
D. Mahendra Sthana
Mahendra is another name for Indra, the king of gods, often depicted leading celestial armies. This name is strongly associated with warfare and combat readiness, hence Military Education (I).

  • A - III (Politics)
  • B - II (Jyotish)
