Select from the following a state where the meaning of 'Torang' is jungle
Answer: B
The state is Jharkhand.
'Torang' means jungle in the Kurukh language spoken by the Oraon people of Jharkhand. The word is known from the EVS account of Suryamani, a young woman from a forest village in Jharkhand who started a centre named Torang to work for the rights and culture of forest-dwelling people.
Assam, Mizoram and Meghalaya are forested north-eastern states, but the word in the question belongs to Jharkhand's tribal language.
