Which among the following correctly matched? (A) Kol Madhya Pradesh (B) Chhutia Nilgiris (Tamil Nadu) (C) Kotas Little Andaman (D) Jarawas Assam

The correct answer is A. Key Points Kol - Madhya Pradesh. The Kol tribe is considered to be one of India's oldest tribes. Kol tribes are found primarily in Madhya Pradesh. The Kol tribe can be found in the following Madhya Pradesh districts: Satna, Rewa, Sidhi, Singhroli, and Jabalpur. The Kol tribe establishes their own panchayat, which they call "Gohiya." The head of this Panchayat is given the title "Choudhary." Kols are mostly landless people who subsist primarily on forest products. Chhutia - Nilgiris (Tamil Nadu). The Chutia people are an Assamese ethnic group who were historically associated with the Chutia kingdom. They are a South East Asian ethnic group who were among the first to arrive in Assam from Southern China. Hence (B) is not correctly matched. ​ Kotas - Little Andaman The Kotas are a minority community of about 1,500-2,000 people who live in seven villages in South India's Nilgiri Hills. The government of India has designated them as Scheduled Tribes because they are long-time residents of the area. Hence, (C) is not correctly matched. Jarawas - Assam ​ The Jarawas are the indigenous people of India's Andaman Islands. They are found in parts of the South and Middle Andaman Islands, and their current population is estimated to be between 250 and 400 individuals. In India, the Jarawas are recognised as an Adivasi group. Hence (D) is also not correctly matched.
