Which lake is considered India’s largest brackish water lake and is located as a lagoon on the Odisha coast?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Chilika Lake

The governing concept is the classification of lakes by salinity, origin and coastal setting. Chilika is a large brackish-water lagoon on the Odisha coast, separated from the Bay of Bengal by a barrier system but connected to it through channels. The mixing of seawater and freshwater gives it brackish conditions, so option B is correct. Wular is a freshwater tectonic lake in Jammu and Kashmir. Loktak is a freshwater lake in Manipur, famous for floating phumdis. Sambhar is a saline inland lake in Rajasthan, not a coastal lagoon. The Odisha location and lagoon form make the identification especially clear.
