Model Answer
The correctly matched pair is B — Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party – Goa.
Explanation
The source passages do not explicitly list all state parties with their states, but Maharashtrawadi Gomantak Party is a well-known state party of Goa — this is standard NCERT/CBSE factual knowledge. The other options are incorrect: DMK is from Tamil Nadu (not Andhra Pradesh), Janata Dal (Secular) is from Karnataka (not Bihar), and All India Forward Bloc has its base in West Bengal (not Punjab).
