How is the link between Maru Raikas and camel rearing connected with Rajasthan's geography?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Camels were useful in dry regions and long-distance travel

The direct answer is B: camels were useful in Rajasthan’s dry regions and for long-distance travel. Rajasthan has extensive arid and semi-arid areas, limited water, sparse vegetation, sandy ground, and difficult distances between settlements. Camels are adapted to such conditions: they can travel long distances, carry loads, and manage with less frequent water than many other animals. Therefore Maru Raika pastoralists’ camel rearing matched the local geography and supported transport, trade, and livelihood. Option A is wrong because Himalayan snow is not the geographical setting that explains the Maru Raikas’ camel association. Option B is correct because it connects the animal’s abilities with Rajasthan’s dry landscape and travel needs. Option C is wrong because paddy fields are wet agricultural areas, not the main habitat linked with desert camel rearing. Option D is wrong because camels were not reared for sea fishing. Memory cue: Rajasthan’s desert plus distance means camel.
