Sample question for PUTHAT 2017
Component I : English Aptitude
Read the following passage and answer Question No. 1
Once, I read in Rajasthan Tourism Department’s brochures that visitors to Jaipur are ‘spoilt for choices’. Now, after my recent visit to Jaipur, I can say that yes, this time these brochures are right. There is so much to see in Jaipur, not only are the city’s forts, palaces, gardens and temples, palaces turned into magnificent hotels, additionally each proves a rewarding experience in itself because they can keep you absorbed for long hours at a stretch. Being a tourist, I can say that Jaipur has much to offer visitors – everything from pageants and festivals to extraordinarily clad people, a wealth of handicrafts, a royal legacy of palaces, and sightseeing. Best thing, I like in Jaipur is the Jantar Mantar: a monument which at first glance looks like a collection of mammoth, bizarre sculptures but is really a wonderful piece of art and science. My guide provided fascinating explanation to how each of the instruments at the Jantar Mantar worked.
Rajasthan’s capital city, Jaipur forces one to think pink (the colour of hospitality). I love food and Rajasthan is indeed a heaven for my kind of people. The delicious Rajasthani Thali, consisting of Dal, Bati, Churma and lots of ghee all make it so good and tempting. I have one word for Rajasthani cuisine and that is ‘yummy’. A noticeable mention should also be made of ‘Chokhi Dhani’ – a wonderful display of Rajasthani culture for mere Rs. 300 is not a bad deal. Moreover, you are also getting food in that money, amazing, the service element involved in food was very good. Everybody there was greeting guests with ‘Ram Ram Sa’. One could wander around and feast one’s eyes on the various live shows ranging from the magical to the bizarre.
