The correct answer is option 3, which is Andhra Pradesh.

Option 1: Jharkhand is incorrect because it is not globally well known for its variety of rocks and minerals. Jharkhand is known for its rich mineral resources, but it is not as globally recognized as Andhra Pradesh.

Option 2: Rajasthan is incorrect because although it is known for its variety of rocks and minerals, it does not have the largest deposits of Chrysotile Asbestos in the country. This statement is true for Andhra Pradesh, not Rajasthan.

Option 3: Andhra Pradesh is the correct answer. It is globally well known for its variety of rocks and minerals. It also has the largest deposits of Chrysotile Asbestos in the country. Additionally, the Neelam Sanjiva Reddy Sagar Hydel Project is located in Andhra Pradesh.

Option 4: Chhattisgarh is incorrect because it is not globally well known for its variety of rocks and minerals. It does have some mineral resources, but it is not on the same level as Andhra Pradesh.
