Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. Sikkim.

The Losoong festival is celebrated in Sikkim. It is a traditional harvest festival of the Bhutia community, marking the end of the farming year. The festival involves Cham dances, archery competitions, and feasting, reflecting Sikkim’s rich cultural heritage.

Other options:

  1. Assam – Celebrates Bihu, a harvest festival, not Losoong.

  2. Manipur – Known for Yaoshang (Holi) and Ningol Chakouba, not Losoong.

  3. Rajasthan – Celebrates festivals like Teej and Gangaur, unrelated to Losoong.
