A
Only one pair
B
Only two pairs
Correct Answer
C
All three pairs
D
None of the pairs
Explanation
Option (b) is correct because Kamarajar Port is the only major port in India registered as a company (corporatized), and Mundra Port is the largest privately owned port. Pair 3 is incorrect because Jawaharlal Nehru Port (Nhava Sheva), not Visakhapatnam, is the largest container port in India. The core concept tested is the administrative classification and specific economic specializations of India’s major and minor ports.
