Reason (R): His death marked the beginning of linguistic state formation in India
नीचे दिए गए कथनों को अभिकथन (A) और कारण (R) से चिह्नित के रूप में पढ़ें और सही विकल्प का चयन करें।
अभिकथन(A):पोट्टि श्रीरामुलु ने आंध्र प्रदेश के गठन के लिए आमरण अनशन किया।
कारण (R):उनकी मृत्यु ने भारत में भाषाई राज्यों के गठन की शुरुआत को चिन्हित किया।
Detailed Solution & Logic
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A/ A और R दोनों सत्य हैं, तथा R, A की सही व्याख्या है।
📖 Explanation
🔹 Assertion (A): TRUE
Potti Sriramulu undertook a fast unto death demanding a separate state for Telugu-speaking people.
- He demanded the formation of Andhra Pradesh (initially Andhra State).
- After 58 days of fasting, he died in 1952.
पोट्टि श्रीरामुलु ने तेलुगु भाषी लोगों के लिए अलग राज्य की मांग करते हुए आमरण अनशन किया।
58 दिनों के बाद 1952 में उनकी मृत्यु हो गई।
🔹 Reason (R): TRUE
His death created massive protests and pressure on the government.
- It led to the formation of Andhra State in 1953
- This event became a turning point and later led to the States Reorganisation Act, 1956, which reorganized states on a linguistic basis.
उनकी मृत्यु के बाद देशभर में आंदोलन हुआ।
इसके परिणामस्वरूप 1953 में आंध्र राज्य बना और आगे चलकर 1956 में राज्यों का भाषाई आधार पर पुनर्गठन हुआ।
🔗 Why R is NOT the correct explanation of A?
- Assertion talks about why he fasted (for Andhra state)
- Reason talks about what happened after his death (impact on linguistic states)
👉 So, R is a result/consequence, not the explanation of A.
- अभिकथन बताता है कि उन्होंने अनशन क्यों किया
- कारण बताता है कि उनकी मृत्यु के बाद क्या हुआ
👉 इसलिए R, A की व्याख्या नहीं है, बल्कि परिणाम है।
⭐ Extra Facts (महत्वपूर्ण तथ्य)
- Andhra became the first state formed on a linguistic basis in independent India (1953).
- The States Reorganisation Act 1956 reorganized Indian states based on language.
- आंध्र राज्य स्वतंत्र भारत का पहला भाषाई राज्य बना (1953)।
