Which neighbouring country lies east of West Bengal?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Bangladesh

The direct answer is B, Bangladesh. West Bengal is an Indian state in the eastern part of the country. Bangladesh lies directly to the east of much of West Bengal and shares a major international boundary with it. Option A, China, is mainly to the north of India and does not lie immediately east of West Bengal. Option B is correct because Bangladesh borders West Bengal on its eastern side. Option C, Afghanistan, is far to the north-west of the Indian subcontinent and is not east of West Bengal. Option D, Maldives, is a group of islands in the Indian Ocean to the south-west of India and has no land border with West Bengal. The reasoning is based on both direction and boundary: identify West Bengal, look east, and find Bangladesh. This is a common map question because West Bengal is a corridor-like state adjoining Bangladesh. A useful exam cue is to pair West Bengal with Bangladesh, while remembering that Bangladesh also touches several north-eastern Indian states.
