View question detailsWhich neighbouring country of India has Thimphu as its capital?
Correct answer: A
Thimphu is the capital city of Bhutan, a small Himalayan kingdom located to the north-east of India. A capital is the main administrative and political city of a country, so identifying the city helps identify the country. Bhutan is one of India’s important Himalayan neighbours, while China and Pakistan have different capitals, and Sri Lanka is an island country with Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte as its official capital.
To solve the question, match the place name with the country: Thimphu belongs to Bhutan. Therefore, option A is correct. The other choices do not fit because Beijing is the capital of China, Islamabad is the capital of Pakistan, and Sri Lanka is not the country associated with Thimphu. Remembering “Thimphu–Bhutan” is useful for questions about India’s neighbouring countries.
