From which place Jayata and Kumpa were associated who impressed Shershah with their valour?

1. A

   Bundelkhand

   Option (a) claims Bundelkhand as the native place of Jayata and Kumpa. However, they were not associated with the Chandela territory of Bundelkhand during the historic campaigns against Sher Shah.

2. B

   Malwa

   Option (b) suggests Malwa as their region of origin. While Malwa witnessed major military actions by Sher Shah, these valiant commanders did not belong to this region.

3. C

   Marwar

   Option (c) states Marwar, which is the correct region associated with Jaita (Jayata) and Kumpa. They were the heroic generals of Rao Maldeo of Marwar who showed extraordinary bravery in the Battle of Sammel (Giri Sumel) in 1544 against Sher Shah Suri, forcing the Afghan ruler to acknowledge their unmatched valor.

4. D

   Mewar

   Option (d) identifies Mewar as their homeland. The Sisodia rulers of Mewar had a different set of prominent warriors and chieftains, making this choice incorrect.

Summary. Official key is (c) Marwar. This question tests knowledge of the valiant Rajput commanders Jaita and Kumpa who served Rao Maldeo. Their fierce resistance at the Battle of Giri Sumel deeply impressed Sher Shah Suri. Aspirants often confuse the regional affiliations of medieval Rajput generals with neighboring states like Mewar or Malwa. Only Marwar accurately represents their historical homeland.
