Correct:
B
Explanation
Uttar Pradesh does not border Punjab but does share frontiers with Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand. Official/state summaries and geographic descriptions list Rajasthan to the west and both Chhattisgarh (to the south) and Jharkhand (to the south‑east) among Uttar Pradesh’s neighbours. Authoritative state descriptions of Uttar Pradesh’s boundaries also enumerate neighbouring states such as Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar but make no mention of Punjab, confirming that Punjab does not directly border Uttar Pradesh [1]. Therefore the correct set from the given choices is 2, 3 and 4 (option code 2).
