SSC MTS - 16/10/2024 - (4:00 PM - 5:30 PM) • General Awareness • Q61

Which of the following was NOT found in the Harappan excavation sites?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Public hospital.

The correct answer is Public hospital. Excavations of Harappan civilization sites, such as Mohenjo-daro and Harappa, have revealed well-planned dwelling houses, public baths (like the Great Bath), and public buildings, indicating advanced urban planning and civic amenities. However, there is no evidence of public hospitals in Harappan sites. Medical facilities, as understood today, were not part of their urban infrastructure. Their focus was on sanitation, drainage, and community spaces rather than organized healthcare institutions.
