Question

A. Assam
B. Meghalaya
C. Mizoram
D. Sikkim

Answer 1

Hint:
 India is sharing its borders with several countries. It is sharing land borders with China, Bhutan, Nepal, Pakistan and Afghanistan in the north. Also, it shares its border with Bangladesh and Myanmar in the east. It is sharing sea borders with Sri Lanka, Maldives and Indonesia.

Complete solution:
The India and Myanmar barrier is 1624 kilometre long. India then hopes to curtail cross-border crime such as goods, arms and counterfeit currency smuggling, drug trafficking, and insurgency. Indian security forces blamed the porous border as the main cause for the deaths of 200 security personnel. It happened in militancy-related violence during 2001-2003.

Four Northeast Indian states are a shared border with Myanmar. These are Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Mizoram, and Manipur. Both country’s governments agreed to have a joint survey before erecting the fence. The Home Ministry of both countries completed the survey within six months during March 2003 to begin erecting the fence along the border.

Additional Information:
 According to the famous quote, if we are coastal, then we serve the world. But, if we are landlocked, then we serve your neighbours. Five landlocked states are not sharing any international boundary. These are Chhattisgarh, Haryana, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, and Telangana.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Note:
Many Indian states which share their border with Bangladesh are -West Bengal, Tripura, Assam, Meghalaya and Mizoram. Also, India shares a long border with Myanmar. It touches Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur and Mizoram.
