Question

Varna of Tabla played by left hand
(A) Dha
(B) Ka
(C) Kat
(D) Ki
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (A), (B), and (C) only
• B. (B), (C) and (D) only
• C. (A), (B) and (D) only
• D. (A), (C) and (D) only

Hint:

Dha uses both hands. Ka, Kat and Ki are played on the Bayan.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understand the question:
We must pick the varnas (bols) of the tabla that are played only with the left hand, that is, on the Bayan.


Step 2: Recall the varnas:
Ge, Ghe, Ka, Ke, Kat and Ki are played with the left hand on the Bayan. Na, Ta, Tin and Tun are played with the right hand on the Dayan. Dha is a joint bol, because it is played by both hands together (Na and Ge).


Step 3: Check (A) Dha:
Dha uses both hands, so it is not a left hand varna.


Step 4: Check (B), (C) and (D):
Ka, Kat and Ki are all left hand varnas.


Step 5: Check option 1:
Option 1 includes Dha, which is wrong.


Step 6: Check option 2:
Option 2 has Ka, Kat and Ki, which is exactly the left hand set, so it is correct.


Step 7: Check options 3 and 4:
Both options 3 and 4 include Dha, so they are wrong.


Final Answer:
Option 2 is correct. \[ \boxed{2} \]
