Explanation

The Rajiv Gandhi National Institute of Youth Development (RGNIYD) is situated at Sriperumbudur in the State of Tamil Nadu. The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports press release refers to inauguration and expansion works explicitly at RGNIYD, Sriperumbudur, Tamilnadu, confirming the institute’s primary campus location [1]. Official RGNIYD materials further describe the Institute as an institute of national importance with multiple regional centres (for example, a regional centre at Chandigarh), but the principal campus and academic-residential complex referenced in official communications is at Sriperumbudur, Tamil Nadu [2]. Therefore, among the given options, Tamil Nadu is the correct location.
