Question

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). \[ \text{Assertion (A): Rampur Sahaswan Gharana is influenced by Gwalior Gharana.} \] \[ \text{Reason (R): Inayat Hussain of Rampur was a son-in-law and disciple of Haddu Khan of Gwalior.} \] Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

• A. Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
• B. Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
• C. (A) is correct but (R) is not correct
• D. (A) is not correct but (R) is correct

Hint:

In Assertion-Reason questions, truth of both statements is not enough. Always check whether Reason explains Assertion.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept:
Assertion-Reason questions require checking two things: \[ \text{First, whether Assertion and Reason are true.} \] \[ \text{Second, whether Reason explains Assertion.} \]

Step 1: Check Assertion (A).
Rampur Sahaswan Gharana has influence of Gwalior Gharana. So, Assertion (A) is correct.

Step 2: Check Reason (R).
Inayat Hussain Khan of Rampur was connected with Haddu Khan of Gwalior as son-in-law and disciple. So, Reason (R) is also correct.

Step 3: Check explanation.
This personal and musical connection explains why Rampur Sahaswan Gharana was influenced by Gwalior Gharana. Therefore, Reason correctly explains Assertion.

Step 4: Final conclusion.
Both statements are correct and Reason is the correct explanation. Hence: \[ \boxed{\text{(A)}} \]
