Which southern place is more correct for India's mainland extent?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Kanyakumari

The key concept is the difference between the southernmost point of India as a whole and the southernmost point of the mainland. India includes island territories, so Indira Point on Great Nicobar Island is the southernmost point of the entire country. However, the question asks specifically about mainland extent. Kanyakumari, also known as Cape Comorin, lies at the southern tip of the Indian peninsula in Tamil Nadu and is therefore the correct answer. Option B is correct. Indira Point, Port Blair, and Minicoy are all island locations: Indira Point is in the Nicobar group, Port Blair is in the Andaman Islands, and Minicoy is part of Lakshadweep. They cannot represent the southernmost point of the continuous mainland.
