Explanation
To arrange the tiger reserves from North to South, we analyze their latitudinal positions across Indian states. Dudhwa Tiger Reserve is located in Uttar Pradesh, making it the northernmost among the options [4]. Moving south, Similipal Tiger Reserve is situated in Odisha [2]. Further south lies Indravati Tiger Reserve in the Bastar region of Chhattisgarh [3]. Finally, Bandipur Tiger Reserve is located in Karnataka, near the tri-junction with Tamil Nadu and Kerala, making it the southernmost in this list [3]. Therefore, the correct latitudinal sequence from North to South is Dudhwa (Uttar Pradesh), Similipal (Odisha), Indravati (Chhattisgarh), and Bandipur (Karnataka). This corresponds to the sequence 2 - 4 - 1 - 3.
