Correct:
A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1: Jharkhand.
Jhonui Telaiya and Mender Hills are significant geographical features located within the state of Jharkhand. Jharkhand is renowned for its hilly terrain, part of the Chota Nagpur Plateau, which hosts various local hill ranges and water bodies.
- Jhonui Telaiya: Specifically refers to regions associated with the Koderma district. Telaiya is famous for the Tilaiya Dam on the Barakar River, the first of the multi-purpose dams included in the Damodar Valley Corporation.
- Mender Hills: These are local elevations found within the tribal heartland of the state, contributing to the unique topography of the region.
Options 2, 3, and 4 are incorrect because while Bihar, Assam, and West Bengal have prominent hill stations (like Mandar Hill in Bihar or the Darjeeling hills in Bengal), the specific combination of Jhonui Telaiya and Mender Hills is unique to the administrative and geographical boundaries of Jharkhand.
