Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Concept
For a current-affairs location question, match all identifying details in the stem—official institution name, capacity, event date and locality—against an authoritative record. Similar institutional names at different sites must be separated by these details.
Application
The Prime Minister's Office record dated 24 August 2022 identifies the institution as the Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital and Research Centre at Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar (Mohali), Punjab.
The same official record describes it as a tertiary-care hospital with a capacity of 300 beds.
Tata Memorial Centre's institutional page independently identifies the 300-bed facility in New Chandigarh, Punjab, as the one inaugurated on 24 August 2022.
Cross-check and contrast
Muzaffarpur, Bihar refers to a different Homi Bhabha cancer facility and not this August 2022 Mohali event.
Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh does not match the locality named in the official inauguration record.
Sangrur, Punjab already had a separate Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital that the official release describes as the spoke to the Mohali hub.
Therefore, the location was Mohali, Punjab.
