Consider the following pairs : Tradition — State 1. Chapchar Kut festival — Mizoram 2. Khongjom Parba ballad — Manipur 3. Thang-Ta dance — Sikkim Which of the pairs given above is/are correct ?

Option (b) is correct because Chapchar Kut is a significant spring festival celebrated in Mizoram, and Khongjom Parba is a traditional musical ballad from Manipur that narrates the story of the 1891 Anglo-Manipur War. Pair 3 is incorrect because Thang-Ta is a traditional martial art form of Manipur, not Sikkim, which makes options (c) and (d) wrong. The core concept being tested is the identification of regional cultural traditions, folk music, and performing arts specifically from North-East India.
