In which of the following States, is an NDRF Battalion not located ?
Explanation
The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) is a specialized force constituted under the Disaster Management Act, 2005. Currently, there are 16 NDRF battalions stationed across India to provide specialized response to natural and man-made disasters. Uttar Pradesh hosts two battalions: the 8th Battalion in Ghaziabad and the 11th Battalion in Varanasi. Arunachal Pradesh is home to the 12th Battalion located in Itanagar. Himachal Pradesh has the 14th Battalion stationed at Nurpur (Kangra district), which was raised specifically to cater to the disaster-prone Himalayan region. Since all the states mentioned in the options (Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and Arunachal Pradesh) currently have at least one NDRF battalion, the correct answer is "None of the above".
