Dokra metalcraft is a unique tradition from which region of Telangana?

Adilabad
Warangal
Karimnagar
Hyderabad

The correct answer is A) Adilabad.

Dokra is a unique metal craft tradition from the Adilabad region of Telangana. It is a lost-wax casting technique that has been practiced in the region for centuries. The process involves creating a wax model of the desired object, which is then covered in clay and fired. The wax melts away, leaving a hollow mold. Molten metal is then poured into the mold and allowed to cool. Once the metal has cooled, the mold is broken away, revealing the finished object.

Dokra is a highly skilled craft that requires a great deal of patience and artistry. The objects produced by Dokra artisans are often highly detailed and intricate. They are prized for their beauty and their unique cultural significance.

The other options are incorrect because they are not regions of Telangana where Dokra is practiced.

A) Adilabad is a district in the northern part of Telangana. It is home to a number of Dokra artisans who practice the craft in the traditional way.

B) Warangal is a district in the central part of Telangana. It is also home to a number of Dokra artisans, but the craft is not as widely practiced there as it is in Adilabad.

C) Karimnagar is a district in the northern part of Telangana. It is not a major center of Dokra production.

D) Hyderabad is the capital of Telangana. It is not a major center of Dokra production.
