Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (a) I-B, II-A, III-D, IV-C
Tuticorin on the Tamil Nadu coast has been famous for traditional pearl-fishing; Pune is India’s major automobile hub; ship-building yards operate at Marmagao (Goa); and Pinjore (Haryana) hosts HMT’s machine-tool/tractor works producing engineering goods. Hence the correct pairing is I-B, II-A, III-D, IV-C. Other options mis-match at least one industry with its centre (e.g., Pinjore is not associated with ship-building).
