Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A
Explanation

To arrange the AIIMS centers from East to West, we must compare their longitudinal coordinates. AIIMS Bhubaneswar (Odisha) is the easternmost among the options, located at approximately 85.81°E. Moving westward, AIIMS Patna (Bihar) follows at approximately 85.05°E [2]. Further west is AIIMS Rishikesh (Uttarakhand), situated at approximately 78.29°E. Finally, AIIMS New Delhi is the westernmost of the four, located at approximately 77.21°E [1]. The longitudinal sequence from East to West is thus Bhubaneswar (4), Patna (3), Rishikesh (1), and New Delhi (2). This geographical distribution reflects the expansion of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences under the Pradhan Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana (PMSSY) to provide tertiary healthcare across different regions of India. Therefore, the correct sequence is 4-3-1-2.
