In which state is Chilika Lake located?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Odisha

The direct answer is C: Chilika Lake is in Odisha. Chilika is a large brackish-water lagoon on the eastern coast of India. It is separated from the Bay of Bengal by a barrier-like coastal formation but is connected with the sea, so its water contains both fresh-water and sea-water influence. The reasoning is straightforward: locate Chilika on the eastern coast; recall that it lies in Odisha; then distinguish it from other important coastal states. Option A is wrong because Kerala is associated with its backwaters and lagoons, not the location of Chilika. Option B is wrong because Gujarat has coastal wetlands and the Gulf of Kachchh, but Chilika is not there. Option C is correct because Chilika lies along the Odisha coast and is a major lagoon and wetland. Option D is wrong because Maharashtra has parts of the Konkan coast, but Chilika is not located there. The useful exam cue is: “Chilika—Odisha—eastern coast—brackish lagoon.” Do not confuse it with Kerala’s backwaters or Gujarat’s coastal wetlands.
