SSC CGL - 11 Sep 2024 - Shift 1 • General Awareness • Q34

Which of the following pairs do NOT share any borders?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Bhutan and Meghalaya.

Bhutan and Meghalaya do not share any borders. Bhutan is a landlocked country located to the north of India, while Meghalaya is a state in northeastern India situated to the south of Bhutan. The states that share borders with Bhutan include Sikkim, West Bengal, and Arunachal Pradesh. Meghalaya, however, is bordered by Assam to the north and south and by Bangladesh to the southwest. Therefore, the geographical positioning of Bhutan and Meghalaya keeps them separated by Indian territory, confirming that they do not share a border.
