Explanation:

Munda – Jamui

The notified scheduled tribes in Bihar = 30

Total tribal population in Bihar (2001 census) - 758, 351, that is, 0.9% of the total population (8.2 crore) of the state.

More than 3/4th tribal population of Banka, Jamui, Kishanganj, Araria, and Madhepura are Santhal. Hence, pair 1 is correct.

Munda ha stheir highest concentration in Katihar district, but they constitute only 4.3% of thetotal tribal population of the district. Since, Munda are not found in Jamui, hence option 2 is not correct.

Oraon has the highest proportion (70%) to the total ST population in the Supaul district. Since Oraon can be found in Supaul, hence pair 3 is correct.

Kharwar are majorly concentrated in Bhagalpur district, Gond in Siwan, followed by Bhojpur and Kaimur (Bhabhua) districts. Since Kharwar can be found in Bhagalpur, hence pair 4 is correct.
