Question

Read the following:
(i) Kurinji - Forested region
(ii) Pernnarkilli - Rajasuyam
(iii) Cheras - Vanji
(iv) Palai - Parched land
Which one of the pair is incorrect?

The correct answer is

(i)

Among the five Sangam-age landscapes (Thinai), 'Kurinji' denotes the hilly, mountainous tract associated with hunting and honey-gathering, not a forested region — forest and pastoral land was classified separately as 'Mullai'. The booklet's marked answer (iv) is actually a correct pairing since 'Palai' does mean parched, arid wasteland; the truly incorrect pairing is (i) Kurinji - Forested region, so the verified answer is (D) (i).
