Hint:
When we talk about the land of paradise, what we mean is the beauty around it which is so mesmerizing and eye-catching that it feels like heaven on earth. A palace so beautiful and peaceful that makes you fall in love with it.

Complete answer:
 Nature has showered Kashmir with unbelievable beauty and has rightly called it the paradise on earth. Jammu and Kashmir is a union territory that has southern parts of Kashmir which is in a dispute between India and China and India and Pakistan for a long time. Jammu and Kashmir reorganization act was passed in 2019 where now Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh are two separate union territories. The reason why Jammu and Kashmir is called the land of paradise is the charming lakes - the lakes there are crystal clear and pretty, some of the renowned lakes are dal and nageen lakes, etc. then the very picture-perfect landscape such as the pir panjal ranges. It snows heavily in winters at Kashmir turning it into a beautiful winter land which is a must-see at least once in your life. Other than the flora around it, another great time to visit Kashmir is during autumn where you can see the vibrant color spread all across the fields and the only tulip garden in India.

Hence, the correct answer is option B.

Note:
The state of Jammu and Kashmir had special status by Article 370 of the Constitution of India. The only state which had its flag, constitution, and administrative autonomy. Indian citizens from other states were not allowed to purchase land or property there.
