Model Answer

(d) Biju Janata Dal – Odisha

Biju Janata Dal is correctly matched with Odisha. It is a State party conscious of its State identity, as mentioned in the chapter.

Source: State parties, Chapter 4

Explanation

The textbook explicitly names Biju Janata Dal as a party that is "conscious about their State identity" and it operates in Odisha. The other options are wrong: Rashtriya Janata Dal is associated with Bihar (not UP), Janta Dal (Secular) with Karnataka (not Bihar), and Rashtriya Lok Dal with Uttar Pradesh (not Assam). Examiners expect direct recall of party–state associations.
