Hint: This state borders Bangladesh to the north-west and to the south. This state is bordered by the state of Mizoram to the east. This state is bordered by the state of Assam to the north-east.

Complete answer:
Tripura shares its border with Bangladesh and myanmar.
Tripura is a northeastern Indian state bordered on three sides by Bangladesh and has a complex mix of tribal cultures and religious groups.
Its capital is Agartala, located in the north-western part of the state near the Bangladeshi border. With a population of 36,73,917, it extends over an area of 4,049 square miles (10,486 square km) (2011). The official languages are Bengali, English, and Kokborok.
Now lets see the options :-
Assam - Assam shares its border with only Bangladesh thus this option is wrong.
Meghalaya - Meghalaya shares its border with Bangladesh only thus this option is wrong.
Tripura - Tripura shares its border with both bangladesh and myanmar thus this option is correct
Mizoram - Mizoram shares its boundary with only bangladesh thus this option is wrong too.

Hence the correct answer is option C.

Note: The international boundary between the countries of Bangladesh and Myanmar (formerly Burma) is the Bangladesh-Myanmar border.
After China (22,147 Km) and Russia, India's international border is the third largest in the world (20,017 Km). In addition to the international boundary of 15,200 km, the Indian border spans an additional coastline of 7515 km. India shares its international border with seven nations, which is also one of the highest in the world (if POK is taken into account).
With almost 199 enclaves in this border region, the Indian-Bangladesh border is the most distinct section of land borders between any two countries in the world.
