Answer
Only two pairs
Why?
The Correct Answer Option B Ramgarh Vishdhari Wildlife Sanctuary is located in Rajasthan. It is India's 52nd tiger reserve and Rajasthan's fourth, after Ranthambore, Sariska and Mikundra. Hence pair 1 is not correctly matched. Painganga Wildlife Sanctuary is located in Maharashtra . It derives its name from the river Painganga or Penganga River which borders the sanctuary on its three sides. Hence pair 2 is not correctly matched. Behali Wildlife Sanctuary is the last remaining semi-evergreen forest in Assam. Hence pair 3 is correctly matched . Velavadar Black Buck National Park is located in Gujarat. It is near the coasts of the Gulf of Khambhat on the south and spread over an area that was primarily a "vidi" (grassland). Hence pair 4 is correctly matched .
