Explanation

For map-skill questions asking to identify a place, name the location clearly and add one supporting fact (what happened there). Examiners expect "Champaran" as the answer; mentioning Bihar and the indigo/plantation context confirms you know the historical context, which secures full marks.

If a question refers to an image, map, graph or diagram that is not shown here, find the actual CBSE question paper on the CBSE website: cbse.gov.in.
