{'bicameral legislature': [2, 0, 1, 0], 'punjab': [2, 0, 1, 0], 'tamil nadu': [3, 0, 1, 1], 'jammu': [4, 2, 0, 3], 'kashmir': [3, 1, 2, 2], 'sikkim': [1, 0, 0, 4]}

The correct answer is option 4, Jammu and Kashmir. A bicameral legislature consists of two separate houses or chambers, usually known as the upper house and the lower house. Jammu and Kashmir, as a state in India, has a bicameral legislature. The upper house is called the Legislative Council, and the lower house is known as the Legislative Assembly.

Let`s evaluate the other options to understand why they are incorrect:

- Option 1: Tamil Nadu has a unicameral legislature, which means it has only one house, called the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly.

- Option 2: Punjab also has a unicameral legislature, with only one house known as the Punjab Legislative Assembly.

- Option 3: Sikkim, like Tamil Nadu and Punjab, has a unicameral legislature. It has only one house, called the Sikkim Legislative Assembly.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4, Jammu and Kashmir.
