Question

‘सूचक’ का समानार्थक शब्द है:

1. A. छोतक (Correct answer)
2. B. धोतक
3. C. घोतक
4. D. ज्ञापन

Correct Answer

Option A — छोतक

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer as printed is (A), and the intended word is द्योतक.

Key Points

• द्योतक means that which reveals, indicates or signifies — the standard synonym of सूचक.
• Every available copy of this paper prints the four options in a corrupted form (छोतक / धोतक / घोतक), which are not real Hindi words. The intended option (A) is द्योतक.

Additional Information

• Genuine synonyms of सूचक: द्योतक, संकेतक, परिचायक, निर्देशक, प्रतीक.
• ज्ञापन is a different thing — a formal *memorandum* or notification, not a synonym for "indicator".
