Pochampalli is a town of Southern State of India which is famous for its beautifully designed bright-coloured Pochampalli sarees and for the special kind of weave which is also called Pochampalli. This town is now a part of

  • A.Karnataka
  • B.Kerala
  • C.Telangana
  • D.Tamil Nadu

Answer: C

Pochampalli is now a part of Telangana.

Bhoodan Pochampally, in Yadadri Bhuvanagiri district, is known for its ikat weaving, in which the threads are tie-dyed before weaving so that the pattern appears in the cloth. The weave received a Geographical Indication tag. The town was in Andhra Pradesh until Telangana was formed in June 2014, which is why the question says 'now'.

Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu are other southern states with their own famous textiles (Mysore silk, Kasavu, Kanchipuram silk), but Pochampalli belongs to none of them.
