List-I (Watershed model)	List-II (State)
(A) Nada	(I) Odisha
(B) Fakot	(II) Karnataka
(C) GR Hali	(III) Uttarakhand
(D) Kokriguda	(IV) Maharashtra
(E) Kumbhare	(V) Haryana

• (A) - (III), (B) - (V), (C) - (IV), (D) - (I), (E) - (II)
• (A) - (V), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (I), (E) - (IV)
• (A) - (IV), (B) - (V), (C) - (II), (D) - (III), (E) - (I)
• (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (V), (E) - (III)

Hint:

- "Nada" is a highly cited model watershed located in Haryana (A matches V).
- "Fakot" is in the Himalayan slopes of Uttarakhand (B matches III).
Using either of these two matches simplifies finding the correct option.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
To demonstrate the success of watershed management, ICAR and CSWCRTI developed various "model watersheds" across different ecological zones in India.
Detailed Explanation:
Let us match the model watersheds with their respective states:
- (A) Nada: This famous model soil-conservation watershed is located in the Panchkula district of (V) Haryana.
- (B) Fakot: Located in the Tehri Garhwal district of (III) Uttarakhand, demonstrating hill-slope water conservation.
- (C) G.R. Halli: Located in the Chitradurga district of (II) Karnataka.
- (D) Kokriguda: Located in the Koraput district of (I) Odisha, showcasing participatory tribal watershed development.
- (E) Kumbhare: Located in (IV) Maharashtra.
This yields the matched sequence:
\[ \text{(A) - (V), (B) - (III), (C) - (II), (D) - (I), (E) - (IV)} \]

Step 2: Final Answer:
The matched sequence corresponds to Option (B).
