Attempted by 5 students.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Concept

An institution's location means the city of its principal campus or headquarters as stated in its official institutional and contact records. It should not be inferred from the national capital or from another city associated with a different organization.

Application

The Wildlife Institute of India lists its campus at Chandrabani, Dehradun, Uttarakhand. Therefore, the required city is Dehradun.

Contrast

  • New Delhi is a common distractor because many Union-government bodies are based in the capital, but it is not WII's campus city.

  • Coimbatore is associated with several research and educational institutions, not WII's principal campus.

  • Ahmedabad is likewise a major institutional centre, but it is not the institute's stated location.

Cross-check

The official contact address also names Chandrabani, Dehradun, which independently confirms the location.
