Garo, Khasi and Jaintia Hills are located in which state?

Correct answer: Meghalaya

The correct answer is Meghalaya because the Garo, Khasi and Jaintia Hills are the principal hill groups of this north-eastern Indian state. Together, they form important parts of the Meghalaya Plateau, which lies south of the Brahmaputra Valley and north of Bangladesh. The Khasi Hills include the area around Shillong, while the Garo Hills lie toward the western side and the Jaintia Hills toward the eastern side. Gujarat, Haryana and Maharashtra do contain hills and uplands, but none of these three named hill groups is their defining geographical feature. Thus, the location-based identification clearly supports option B.
