Question

Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:
Kausani is situated at a height of 6.075 feet in the central Himalayas. It is an unusually attractive little
town. It covers just about 5.2 sq. km. It lies to the north of Almora in Uttarakhand's picturesque kumcon
region.
Kausani provides a 300 km, wide breathtaking view of the Himalayas. It is the most striking aspect of
this place. Snow capped peaks are spread in a stately row. They stare at you in silvery-white majesty
The most famous peak on view is Nanda Devi, the second highest mountain in India. It is situated at a
height of 25,645 feet and is 36 miles away as the crow flies. The other famous peaks on view are
Choukhamba (23.420 feet) and Trishul (23,360 feet). Then there are also Nilkanth, Nandaghunti,
Nandaghat and Nandakot. On a clear day, the blue of the sky makes a splendid background to these
peaks. At sunrise and at sunset, when the colour of the sky changes to a golden orange, the scene gets
etched in your memory.
When Gandhiji visited this place in 1929, its scenic beauty held him spellbound. He named it the
'Switzerland of India'. He prolonged his two day stay to fourteen days, making time to write a book,
Anashakti Yoga'. The place where he was staying was originally a guest house of a tea estate. It was
renamed 'Anashakti Ashram' after the book.
Kausani is the birthplace of Sumitranandan Pant, India's poet laureate. Its natural surroundings inspired
many of his poems. Its tea gardens mingle with dense pine forests and fruit orchards. The area is also
host to many fairs and religious ceremonies. If Uttarakhand is the abode of Gods, Kausani is God's own
backyard. There is no traffic and no one is in a hurry. If serenity could be put on a canvas, the picture
would resemble Kausani.
