Passage (Kalagram—as above). Which one of the following statements is not correct?

  1. A.Paintings from four States of India have been mentioned.✓ Correct
  2. B.Stepping into Kalagram is likened to stepping into another world.
  3. C.The Angans have been described as living galleries.
  4. D.Kalagram is divided into thematic zones, inspired by well-known temples of India.

Explanation

The passage mentions paintings from only two states explicitly—Bengal's Pattachitra paintings and Tamil Nadu's Thanjavur paintings. Assam is mentioned for bamboo crafts (not paintings) and Madhya Pradesh for tribal sculpture (not paintings). Therefore, the claim that paintings from four states are mentioned is incorrect. The other statements are directly supported by the passage: it is likened to entering another world, the Angans are called 'living galleries', and Kalagram is divided into thematic zones inspired by iconic temples.
