Chapchar Kut is a festival celebrated in the state of Mizoram, hence, option 3 is the correct answer. To elaborate, this is one of the most popular spring festivals of Mizoram, usually held in March after the jhum (shifting cultivation) crops are harvested. The festival involves various cultural events, traditional games, dances and feasts.

Looking at the other options, Arunachal Pradesh (option 1) is known for the celebration of festivals like Torgya, Losar and Solung. Assam (option 2) hosts the famous Bihu festival, and Sikkim (option 4) is renowned for festivals like Losar, Bhumchu, and Saga Dawa. Thus, none of these three states celebrates Chapchar Kut, confirming the correctness of the provided answer.
