UPSC 1999: Which one of the following pairs of states and tribes is not correctly matched?
(a)Assam : Miri
(b)Nagaland : Konyak
(c)Arunachal Pradesh : Apatani
(d)Madhya Pradesh : Lambada
Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (d) Madhya Pradesh : Lambada
The Lambada/Lambadi (also called Labhani or Banjara) are traditionally a nomadic group concentrated in Telangana–Andhra region and parts of Rajasthan and Karnataka, not in Madhya Pradesh; the other three pairs—Miri (Assam), Konyak (Nagaland) and Apatani (Arunachal Pradesh)—are correct. Hence option (d) is not correctly matched ([britannica.com](https://www.britannica.com/topic/Labhani?utm_source=openai)).
