This question was previously asked in
SSC GD Constable 2018 Question Paper PDF Hindi (8-Mar-2019) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

Dhamsa

Dhamsa is correct.

The Dhamsa is a large kettle drum that is the backbone of the tribal folk music of Jharkhand. Santhal, Munda, Ho and Oraon communities play it with the madal and nagara during festivals such as Karma and Sarhul and during community dances.

Mando is the song form of Goa, Mand is a classical-folk singing style of Rajasthan, and Khubak Eshei is a clapping song-and-dance form of Manipur, so none of them belongs to Jharkhand.
