Q. Panchavati, a key part of the Valmiki Ramayana is located in which state of India?
Answer: Maharashtra
Notes: Panchavati, located in modern-day Maharashtra's Nashik, is a vital locale in Valmiki's Ramayana. It resides on the Godavari River's banks and holds monumental significance due to its association with Lord Rama’s exile period. The entire narrative arc of the Ramayana's Aranya Kanda (forest section) takes place in Panchavati- a place strongly intertwined with the epic's key events and symbolism.
