Panthi dance in Chhattisgarh is associated with the followers of which of the following?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Satnami sect.
Panthi dance is closely associated with the Satnami sect of Chhattisgarh, founded by Guru Ghasidas. The dance is performed mainly during religious events, especially on Guru Ghasidas Jayanti, and reflects the community’s teachings of equality, devotion, and moral living. Its energetic movements, rhythmic patterns, and devotional songs highlight spiritual values central to the Satnami tradition.
The other options are incorrect because Kabir Panth, the Nath tradition, and the Lingayat community have their own distinct cultural practices and are not linked to the Panthi dance form of Chhattisgarh.
