Discussion

Explanation:

Option 1 cannot be the correct answer option because the passage is silent on the structural differences between Western and North Indian classical music.
Options 3 and 4, while true in themselves touch upon peripheral issues of the passage.
The passage mentions that in North Indian classical music the ‘raga’ is unconfined to a single composer or performer, it is greater than the artiste who invokes it whereas in Western classical music, the originator or the genius remains the father of his work, it is his intellectual property. This is the crux of the passage and the last paragraph is an inference derived from this fact.
Hence, the correct answer is option 2.
