The provided answer is correct. The Constitution (35th Amendment) Act of 1974 is related to Sikkim. It was enacted to include Sikkim as the 22nd state of India. Prior to this amendment, Sikkim was a protectorate of India and had a special status. However, the amendment merged Sikkim with India and abolished the position of Chogyal (monarch) in Sikkim. It also extended the jurisdiction of the Indian Supreme Court to Sikkim and made it subject to the Indian Constitution.

Option 4: Arunachal Pradesh is incorrect as the Constitution (35th Amendment) Act of 1974 is not related to Arunachal Pradesh.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 2, Sikkim.
