Khejri tree is held important for the locals of Rajasthan. Which of the following is not true about khejri tree ?
Answer: D
The statement that is not true is that dried yellow beans of the khejri are stored and used for cooking round the year.
What Rajasthan dries and stores for cooking is sangri, the green, unripe pods of the khejri (Prosopis cineraria), which are cooked as a vegetable through the year, famously in ker-sangri. Yellow beans are not the stored food.
The other statements are accepted. The ripe, dried pods, called khokha, have a sweetish pulp and are eaten, especially by children. Khejri is the most dominant tree of the arid west, and it was declared the state tree of Rajasthan in 1983, the year the option gives as 1982-83.
