Explanation
Bhimtal in Uttarakhand is a tectonic lake formed by crustal movements (A-3). Ashtamudi in Kerala is a lagoon formed behind a coastal barrier (B-1). Gohna Tal was formed in 1893 when a landslide dammed a Himalayan valley (C-2). Lonar in Maharashtra occupies a crater left by a meteorite impact (D-4). The correct match is therefore A-3, B-1, C-2, D-4.
