Question map
Arrange the following Military Training Institutes in India in terms of their geographical location form North to South I. Indian Military Academy II. Officers Training Academy III. National Defence Academy IV. National Defence College V. College of Defence Management Select the correct answer using the code given below
Explanation
To arrange the institutes from North to South, we identify their locations and latitudes. The Indian Military Academy (IMA) is in Dehradun (~30.3°N) [t2][t3]. The National Defence College (NDC) is in New Delhi (~28.6°N) [t3][t5]. Moving south, the National Defence Academy (NDA) is located in Khadakwasla, Pune (~18.4°N) [t2][t8]. Further south is the College of Defence Management (CDM) in Secunderabad (~17.4°N) [t3]. Finally, the Officers Training Academy (OTA) is located in Chennai (~13.0°N) [t3]. Therefore, the correct North-to-South sequence is IMA (I), NDC (IV), NDA (III), CDM (V), and OTA (II). This corresponds to the sequence I, IV, III, V, II. Note: Option 2 contains a typo ('IIV' instead of 'I, IV'), but it is the only sequence following the correct geographical order.
