Correct option is B
The correct option is (b) परिपत्र.
Explanation:
In official and administrative usage, a Circular is a written or printed letter or notice containing information or instructions, sent to a number of people or offices simultaneously. In Hindi official terminology, the correct and standardised translation of Circular is परिपत्र.
Correct answer – परिपत्र:
- परि = around / all over (conveying wide circulation)
- पत्र = letter / document
- Together: a document sent to many recipients simultaneously
(Hindi: सभी संबंधितों को एक साथ भेजा गया पत्र)
Example: A government circular is issued to inform all departments about a new policy. (सरकारी परिपत्र सभी विभागों को जारी किया जाता है।)
Meanings of other options:
- (a) परिक्रमा – Circumambulation or revolution around something (जैसे मंदिर की परिक्रमा); not related to official communication.
- (c) अनुयान – Not a standard administrative term in this context.
- (d) अधिशेष – Surplus (अतिरिक्त / शेष मात्रा); an economic/accounting term, not related to a circular.
So the correct answer is (b)
