Correct:
C
Explanation
The correct matching of wildlife sanctuaries to their respective states is as follows: Sharavati Valley Wildlife Sanctuary is located in the Shivamogga district of Karnataka, encompassing the famous Jog Falls [2]. Satkosia Gorge Sanctuary is situated in Odisha and is carved by the Mahanadi River. Pirotan Island is a significant part of the Marine National Park located in the Gulf of Kutch, Gujarat. Bhagwan Mahavir Wildlife Sanctuary (which includes Mollem National Park) is located in the state of Goa. Therefore, the correct sequence is A-4 (Karnataka), B-3 (Odisha), C-1 (Gujarat), and D-2 (Goa). This corresponds to the code 4 3 1 2, making option 3 the correct choice.
