Which among the following was NOT a part of the three sections of the Rigvedic tribe?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. Craftsman.

Among the options provided, Craftsman was NOT a part of the three sections of the Rigvedic tribe. 

The Rigvedic society was divided into three main sections or groups, which were:

  1. Priests (Brahmins) – Responsible for performing rituals and religious duties.
  2. Warriors (Kshatriyas) – Responsible for protection, defense, and leadership in battles.
  3. Ordinary people (Vaishyas) – This included farmers, traders, and common people who contributed to the economy.

The focus was more on the roles of priests, warriors, and ordinary people. However, skilled artisans and craftsmen were still important members of the society, but they did not form a distinct section like the others.
