B 1 3 2 4
C 1 4 2 3
D 1 3 4 4

Correct answer: (b) 1 3 2 4

Explanation

  1. A

    1 2 3 4

    (a) 1 2 3 4. Puts Bara Balute in Karnataka and Mirasi in Maharashtra. Bara Balutedar is the Maharashtrian twelve-service village system; Mirasi is not Maharashtra’s label here.

  2. B

    1 3 2 4

    (b) 1 3 2 4. Jajmani → North India (1), Bara Balute → Maharashtra (3), Mirasi → Karnataka (2), Adade → Tamil Nadu (4). Official key on this paper.

  3. C

    1 4 2 3

    (c) 1 4 2 3. Sends Bara Balute to Tamil Nadu and Adade to Maharashtra, swapping the Deccan service systems.

  4. D

    1 3 4 4

    (d) 1 3 4 4. Repeats 4 for two rows and is an internally broken code.

Summary. Official key is (b) 1 3 2 4. Jajmani is the north Indian hereditary patron–client service web. Bara Balute (twelve balutedars) is Maharashtra. This paper maps Mirasi to Karnataka and Adade to Tamil Nadu. (a) and (c) shuffle those southern tags; (d) is not a valid unique mapping.
