Explanation

The industrial locations in India are specialized based on historical and strategic factors. Railway equipment is significantly associated with Bhilai, where the Bhilai Steel Plant produces heavy rails and plates [3]. The automobile industry has a major hub in Jabalpur, specifically the 'Vehicle Factory' established in 1969, which manufactures Shaktiman trucks and Nissan jeeps for defense purposes [1]. Ship-building is a primary industry in Kochi, home to the Cochin Shipyard, which is one of India's largest shipbuilding and maintenance facilities. Ludhiana is globally recognized as a major hub for the bicycle industry, accounting for a vast majority of India's bicycle production. Matching these pairs (A-3, B-4, C-1, D-2) leads to Option 1. This distribution reflects the regional development of heavy engineering and manufacturing clusters across India.
