Your answer: —  ·  Correct: C
Explanation

The outline corresponds to Dadra and Nagar Haveli. The UT of Dadra and Nagar Haveli historically comprised small inland enclaves (Dadra and the larger Nagar Haveli) situated between Gujarat and Maharashtra — a distinctive inland, non-coastal shape that differs from coastal Daman and the island-like Diu of Daman & Diu. Map sources and UT summaries identify this entity and its characteristic enclave pattern under the combined administration of Dadra & Nagar Haveli (now merged administratively with Daman & Diu), which is documented in standard map repositories and UT descriptions [1]. Given the enclave-style inland outline (not a single coastal or island outline), the correct choice is Dadra and Nagar Haveli (option 3) [1].
