The correct answer is option 2 - Sikkim. Sikkim is the first Indian state to go wholly organic. This means that all farming practices in Sikkim are conducted without the use of synthetic chemicals, fertilizers, or pesticides. The state made a commitment to become fully organic in 2003 and achieved this milestone in 2016. Sikkim`s transition to organic farming has been praised for its positive impact on the environment, soil fertility, and the health of farmers and consumers. The state`s organic farming practices also promote biodiversity and sustainable agriculture. Sikkim`s success in going wholly organic has inspired other states in India and around the world to pursue similar initiatives.
