    A Uttarkashi Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Chamoli Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Pithoragarh Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Bageshwar Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Pithoragarh District having its entire northern and eastern boundaries being international, assumes a great strategic significance and, obviously, is a politically sensitive district along the northern frontier of India. Being the last district adjoining Tibbet, it has tremendous strategic importance as the passes of Lipulekh, Kungribingri, Lampia Dhura, Lawe Dhura, Belcha and Keo, open out to Tibbet.
