Raj Ghat : Mahatma Gandhi

This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2020 Tier-II (English) Previous Year Paper (29-Jan-2022)
The correct answer is

Vijay Ghat : Lal Bahadur Shastri

Understanding the Analogy: Raj Ghat and Mahatma Gandhi

The given pair of words, "Raj Ghat : Mahatma Gandhi", establishes a relationship where the first word is a memorial site or samadhi, and the second word is the prominent Indian leader whose memorial is located at that site.

Raj Ghat is a memorial dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation, located in Delhi. People visit Raj Ghat to pay homage to Mahatma Gandhi.

Analyzing the Options

We need to find the option that shares the same "Memorial Site : Leader" relationship as "Raj Ghat : Mahatma Gandhi". Let's examine each option:

  1. Veer Bhoomi : Indira Gandhi This option pairs Veer Bhoomi with Indira Gandhi. Veer Bhoomi is the memorial of Rajiv Gandhi, while Indira Gandhi's memorial is known as Shakti Sthal. Therefore, this pair does not share the same relationship as the original pair.
  2. Shakti Sthal : Sanjay Gandhi This option pairs Shakti Sthal with Sanjay Gandhi. Shakti Sthal is the memorial of Indira Gandhi, while Sanjay Gandhi's memorial is at Shanti Vana (shared with Jawaharlal Nehru). Therefore, this pair does not share the correct relationship.
  3. Vijay Ghat : Lal Bahadur Shastri This option pairs Vijay Ghat with Lal Bahadur Shastri. Vijay Ghat is indeed the memorial site dedicated to Lal Bahadur Shastri, the second Prime Minister of India. This pair perfectly matches the relationship established by "Raj Ghat : Mahatma Gandhi".
  4. Shanti Vana : Rajiv Gandhi This option pairs Shanti Vana with Rajiv Gandhi. Shanti Vana is the memorial of Jawaharlal Nehru and Sanjay Gandhi, while Rajiv Gandhi's memorial is Veer Bhoomi. This pair does not have the same relationship.

Conclusion on the Analogy

Based on the analysis, the only option that correctly represents a memorial site dedicated to the leader mentioned is "Vijay Ghat : Lal Bahadur Shastri". This mirrors the relationship seen in the initial pair "Raj Ghat : Mahatma Gandhi".

Why Other Options are Incorrect

  • Veer Bhoomi is for Rajiv Gandhi, not Indira Gandhi.
  • Shakti Sthal is for Indira Gandhi, not Sanjay Gandhi.
  • Shanti Vana is primarily for Jawaharlal Nehru and Sanjay Gandhi, not Rajiv Gandhi.

Additional Information on Memorial Sites and Leaders

These memorial sites in Delhi are significant places of historical and national importance. They are built at the cremation spots of these leaders and serve as places where people can remember their contributions to India. Understanding which leader is associated with which memorial site is important for general knowledge and competitive exams.
