Mishmi, Abor, and Dafla Hills should be studied together in the mountain context of which state?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Arunachal Pradesh
Option A, Arunachal Pradesh, is correct. The Mishmi Hills occupy the eastern and northeastern part of the state, while the Abor and Dafla hills are traditional names for hill regions associated with the central and western parts of Arunachal Pradesh. Together they represent subdivisions of the northeastern mountain system near the eastern Himalaya. Tamil Nadu contains sections of the southern Western Ghats, Rajasthan is associated with the Aravalli Range and desert margins, and Maharashtra contains Deccan and Sahyadri landforms. Their locations do not fit the three named northeastern hill groups. The state-based clue therefore leads unambiguously to Arunachal Pradesh.
