LIST-I (Hindustani Swar)	LIST-II (Western Swar)
A. Madhyam	I. Mediant
B. Rishabh	II. Dominant
C. Gandhar	III. Sub Dominant
D. Pancham	IV. Super Tonic

Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

• A. A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
• B. A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
• C. A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
• D. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

Hint:

Western scale shortcut: \[ Re = \text{Super Tonic},\quad Ga = \text{Mediant},\quad Ma = \text{Sub dominant},\quad Pa = \text{Dominant} \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Concept:
Western scale degrees have special names. \[ \text{Sa} = \text{Tonic} \] \[ \text{Re} = \text{Super Tonic} \] \[ \text{Ga} = \text{Mediant} \] \[ \text{Ma} = \text{Sub dominant} \] \[ \text{Pa} = \text{Dominant} \]

Step 1: Match Madhyam.
Madhyam corresponds to Sub dominant. \[ A \rightarrow III \]

Step 2: Match Rishabh.
Rishabh corresponds to Super Tonic. \[ B \rightarrow IV \]

Step 3: Match Gandhar.
Gandhar corresponds to Mediant. \[ C \rightarrow I \]

Step 4: Match Pancham.
Pancham corresponds to Dominant. \[ D \rightarrow II \]

Step 5: Final matching.
The correct matching is: \[ A-III,\ B-IV,\ C-I,\ D-II \] Hence: \[ \boxed{\text{(D)}} \]
