Which option shows reversal of boundary type among India's neighbours?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Sri Lanka land and Nepal maritime

The direct answer is option D. Sri Lanka is a maritime neighbour, and Nepal is a land neighbour, so option D reverses the boundary types. A land neighbour touches India through a land boundary. A maritime neighbour is nearby but is separated from India by sea. Nepal lies along India’s northern land boundary, so calling it maritime is wrong. Sri Lanka lies south of India across the Palk Strait, so calling it a land neighbour is wrong. Option A is correct: Nepal is land-based and Maldives is maritime. Option B is also correct: Bhutan shares a land boundary and Sri Lanka is across the sea. Option C is correct because both Bangladesh and Myanmar have land boundaries with India. Option D alone gives both descriptions in reverse order: it says Sri Lanka is land and Nepal is maritime. Therefore D is the answer. Memory cue: if a country touches India on the map by land, it is land-based; island countries such as Sri Lanka and Maldives are maritime neighbours.
