The correct answer is In the districts of Ganganagar & Hanumangarh.

Key Points

• 'Ghagghar ka Maidan' is situated in the districts of Ganganagar and Hanumangarh.
• The Ghaggar-Hakra River is an intermittent river in India and Pakistan that flows only during the monsoon season.
  • The river is known as Ghaggar in India, before the Ottu barrage, and as the Hakra in Pakistan, downstream of the barrage, ending in the Thar desert.
• In pre-Harappan times the Hakra was a tributary of the Sutlej.
  • It is still connected to this paleochannel of the Sutlej, and possibly the Yamuna, which ended in the Nara River, presently a delta channel of the Indus River joining the sea via Sir Creek.

Additional Information

• The Ghaggar is an intermittent river in India, flowing during the monsoon rains.
  • It originates in the village of Dagshai in the Shivalik Hills of Himachal Pradesh at an elevation of 1,927 meters (6,322 ft) above mean sea level and flows through Punjab and Haryana states into Rajasthan just southwest of Sirsa, Haryana, and by the side of Talwara Lake in Rajasthan.
  • Dammed at Ottu barrage near Sirsa, Ghaggar feeds two irrigation canals that extend into Rajasthan.
• The main tributaries of the Ghaggar are the Kaushalya river, Markanda, Sarsuti, Tangri and Chautang.
• The Kaushalya river is a tributary of Ghaggar river on the left side of Ghaggar-Hakra,
• It flows in the Panchkula district of Haryana state of India and confluences with Ghaggar river near Pinjore just downstream of Kaushalya Dam.

The UN's Membership has grown from the original 51 Member States in 1945 to the current 193 Member States.

Ignoring a leap year, both Ram and Shyam can have any day of the year as their birthday. 
∴ Total number of possible ways in which their birthday can fall = 
Also they can share the same birthday falls on same date = 365
∴ Required Probability 

Given, the quadratic polynomial is (k-1) x² + k x + 1.

One zero of the polynomial is -3.

Explanation:

Let f(x) = (k-1) x² + k x + 1

f(-3) = 0

Put x = -3 in the given polynomial

(k-1) (-3)² + k (-3) + 1 = 0

(k-1)(9) - 3k + 1 = 0

9k - 9 - 3k + 1 = 0

By grouping,

9k - 3k - 9 + 1 = 0

6k - 8 = 0

6k = 8

k = 8/6

k = 4/3

Therefore, the value of k is 4/3.

Given, A dice is thrown once. So,

Total number of outcomes (n) = 6

Number of prime numbers = {2, 3,5}

So, Favorable number of outcomes (m) = 3

Thus, probability of getting a prime number = m/n = 3/6 = 1/2

A cubic polynomial is a polynomial of degree 3. A univariate cubic polynomial has the form An equation involving a cubic polynomial is called a cubic equation. A closed-form solution known as the cubic formula exists for the solutions of an arbitrary cubic equation.

Since,

⇒ x = y

Also, (x, y) = (y, x), if x = y

As, 867=255 × 3 +102
255 = 102 × 2 + 51
102 = 51 × 2 + 0
So, HCF (867,255) = 51

Second one had one more side than the first.

As 24:60 = (2/5)

Similarly, (120/300) = (2/5)

From Statement I:

'Check is Mandatory' is written as '@wt ^yi *nr' and 'Corporate is expensive' is written as '$bl (ux *nr’.

Hence, Statement 1 alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

From Statement II:

‘Corporate Check Shipping' is written as '^yi (ux #jc' and 'Check praise expensive’ is written as '%hr ^yi $bl'.

Hence, Statement 2 alone is not sufficient to answer the question.

Checking both Statement, I and II together:

Clearly ‘is’ is repeated in statement 1 ('Check is Mandatory' is written as ‘@wt ^yi *nr’ and 'Corporate is expensive' is written as ‘$bl (ux *nr’) and statement 2 ('Check praise expensive’ is written as '%hr ^yi $bl’).

Thus, code for ‘Corporate’ is ‘(ux’.

Clearly, Statement I and Statement II together are necessary to answer the question.

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

From the common explanation, we can say that there are at least 16 boys sitting in the row.
Hence, Option B is correct.
Final Arrangement:

Common Explanation:
References:
Only two boys sit to the left of J.
Eight boys sit between R and J.
Only three boys sit between R and M.
Inferences:
From the above references, we get two different cases:

References:
P sits fourth to the right of R.
O sits third to the left of M.
Inferences:
So, from this case 2 will be eliminated as P sits fourth to the right of R.

References:
Only three boys sit between O and H.
T sits third to the right of M.
V sits fourth to the right of O.
More than 12 boys sit between P and H.
More than seven boys sit between P and J.
Inferences:
From the above reference, we get the final arrangement:

As 'Dress' is worn on 'Body' similarly 'Bangles' are worn on 'Wrist'.

Teeth, tongue and palate are inside the mouth. chin is outside.

From the common explanation, we get the position of O is 3rd to the left of M.

Hence, Option B is correct.

Final Arrangement:

Common Explanation:

References:

J sits fourth to the right of O and N sits second to the left of J.

Only H sits between J and G.

Inferences:

From the above references, we get

References:

Only D sits between G and C

G is not an immediate neighbour of J but fifth to the right of I.

M, who sits exactly in the middle, is second to the right of I.

Five persons sit between L and J.

Inferences:

From the above references, we get

References:

E is not an immediate neighbour of N.

Inferences:

From the above reference, we get the final arrangement:

Checking Statement I:
Using statement I, we do not get any relation between car and cycle.
Therefore, the conclusion cannot be derived using statement I alone.
Checking Statement II:
Using statement II, we do not get any relation between car and cycle.
Therefore, the conclusion cannot be derived using statement II alone.
Checking both statements I and II:
Using both statements I and II, we get the following diagram:

Since some cycles are trains and no train is buses and all cars are buses, therefore, some cycles are not cars is definitely true.
Since the required conclusion can be derived by using statements I and II together.
Hence, Option D is correct.
