Identify the incorrect statement:

Correct option is A

Ans. (a)
The incorrect statement is (a) "Folk deity Baba Ramdev was born in Runicha village near Pokaran." Baba Ramdev was actually born on Bhadrapad Shukla Dooj (Dwitiya) in Udasamer village of Shiv Tehsil in Barmer district, Rajasthan. However, Runicha near Pokaran is the place where he later settled and is famous for his samadhi (final resting place), which is now a major pilgrimage site.
Baba Ramdev is revered by both Hindus and Muslims. Hindus worship him as an incarnation of Lord Krishna, while Muslims honor him as Ramsa Pir. His symbol is a horse rider carrying a spear, and his vehicle was a white horse named "Leela Ghoda." The Terahtaali dance, performed by the Kamadiya community, is a special attraction at the annual Baba Ramdev fair.
