Explanation

The question requires matching countries with their respective capitals as per the 2003 UPSC Prelims. Based on geographical facts, the correct matches are: (I) Palestine - (D) Ramallah, which serves as the administrative capital and seat of the Palestinian Authority; (II) Kosovo - (C) Pristina, the capital and largest city of the partially recognized state; (III) Turkey - (B) Ankara, which replaced Istanbul as the capital in 1923; and (IV) Taiwan - (A) Taipei, the political and economic center of the Republic of China. While the provided snippets discuss general capital matching and administrative changes like Myanmar's shift to Pyinmana , standard political geography confirms that the sequence I-D, II-C, III-B, IV-A corresponds to Option 3. This aligns with the historical context of the 2003 examination period.
