Match List I (Atomic Power Station) with List II (Position in Map) and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists. List I A Narora B. Rana Pratap Sagar C. Tarapur D. Kalpakkam List II Codes: ABCD
Explanation
The matching of atomic power stations to their geographic locations is as follows: Narora is located in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh [2]. Rana Pratap Sagar (Rawatbhata) is situated near Kota in Rajasthan, specifically on the Chambal River [1]. Tarapur, India's first nuclear power station, is located in Maharashtra [3]. Kalpakkam (Madras Atomic Power Station) is situated on the east coast in Tamil Nadu [1]. On a standard map of India used in such questions, the positions are typically numbered from North to South or by state. Narora (UP) is the northernmost (Position 2), followed by Rana Pratap Sagar (Rajasthan, Position 3), Tarapur (Maharashtra, Position 4), and Kalpakkam (Tamil Nadu, Position 1). Thus, the correct sequence for A-B-C-D is 2-3-4-1.
