Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A
Explanation

The correct sequence of the tiger reserves from north to south is Dudhwa, Kanha, Indravati, and Bandipur. Dudhwa Tiger Reserve is located in the Lakhimpur-Kheri district of Uttar Pradesh, making it the northernmost among the options [c4, t3]. Moving south, Kanha Tiger Reserve is situated in Madhya Pradesh [t3, t4]. Further south is the Indravati Tiger Reserve, located in the Bastar region of Chhattisgarh [c1, t2]. Finally, Bandipur Tiger Reserve is located in the southern state of Karnataka [c1, t2, t4]. Geographically, Uttar Pradesh (approx. 28°N) is north of Madhya Pradesh (approx. 22°N), which is north of Chhattisgarh's southern reaches (approx. 19°N), while Karnataka (approx. 11°N) is the southernmost. This latitudinal progression confirms that Option 1 is the only sequence that correctly follows a north-to-south trajectory.
