[Figure: An outline map of India with four locations marked: 1 in north-central India, 2 in central India (just south of the Tropic of Cancer), 3 in the north-east, and 4 in the north-west.]
Match List I with List II and select the correct answer using the code given below the Lists:
List I (National Park): A. Corbett, B. Neora Valley, C. Betla, D. Kanha
List II (Location in map): 1, 2, 3, 4 as marked in the map above
Code: A B C D
- A2 1 3 4
- B2 3 1 4

Explanation
Corbett National Park in Uttarakhand is the north-western mark (4); Neora Valley in West Bengal the north-eastern (3); Betla in Jharkhand the north-central (1); Kanha in Madhya Pradesh the central mark just south of the Tropic of Cancer (2). All four are well-known national parks and tiger reserves of India. The correct code is therefore A-4, B-3, C-1, D-2, giving (D).
