Which example most correctly matches lake location and type?

Correct answer: सांभर / राजस्थान की खारी झील / Sambhar / saline lake of Rajasthan

The direct answer is A: Sambhar is a saline lake of Rajasthan. A lake’s location and type must both be matched correctly. Sambhar Lake lies in Rajasthan and is well known as India’s largest inland salt lake, so the pair in option A is correct. The reasoning is: identify the named lake, recall its state, and recall whether it is saline, freshwater, lagoon, or glacial. Option A passes both checks. Option B is wrong because Dal Lake is in Jammu and Kashmir and is a freshwater lake, not a saline lake of Tamil Nadu. Option C is wrong because Wular Lake is in Jammu and Kashmir; it is not a lagoon of Odisha. Option D is wrong because Chilika is a brackish-water coastal lagoon in Odisha, not a glacial lake. A lagoon is a shallow water body separated partly from the sea, whereas a glacial lake forms through glacial action. Memory cue: Sambhar means salt and Rajasthan; Chilika means Odisha lagoon.
