Competition practiceAnalogy & Classification
  • AJaipur : Rajasthan
  • BVaranasi : Ganga
  • CSurat : Tapi
  • DKolkata : Hooghly

Step-by-Step Solution

Varanasi stands on the Ganga, Surat on the Tapi and Kolkata on the Hooghly. Rajasthan is the state Jaipur lies in and not a river at all, so that pair alone breaks the rule. Kolkata : Hooghly may look doubtful because the Hooghly is a branch of the Ganga rather than a river with its own far source, but it is still a river and the pair holds.
Answer: A) Jaipur : Rajasthan
