Incorrect AnswerGanesh Chaturthi
Correct AnswerExplanation:
- Fugdi is a Goan folk dance that is mainly performed by women in the Konkan region of India. It showcases energetic movements and traditional music.
- Option 1: Diwali. While Diwali is a major festival in India, it is more known for its fireworks, lighting of lamps, and sweets rather than Fugdi dance.
- Option 2: Holi. Holi is celebrated with colors and water, not typically associated with the performance of Fugdi.
- Option 3: Durga Puja. This festival focuses more on the worship of Goddess Durga with rituals and processions but is not predominantly linked with Fugdi.
- Option 4: Ganesh Chaturthi. Fugdi is commonly performed during Ganesh Chaturthi, particularly in Goa, as part of the celebrations.
