Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Concept
For a passage-based factual question, the governing method is explicit-text matching.
Identify the entity-place link stated in the passage, and accept only an option supported by that wording.
Application
The passage names the Indigenous communities of the islands and explicitly includes the Jarawa. Among the offered values, this directly links the Jarawa community to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
Contrast
The options can be distinguished by their principal geographic associations:
Khasi — primarily associated with the Khasi Hills of Meghalaya.
Santhal — primarily associated with the Chota Nagpur region and neighbouring eastern states.
Bodo — primarily associated with the Brahmaputra Valley of Assam.
Jarawa — an Indigenous community of the Andaman Islands named in the passage.
Cross-check
Reading the passage's list again shows the Jarawa alongside the Onge and Sentinelese as island communities; none of the other offered values appears in that list.
Result
Therefore, the answer is Jarawa.
