Question

Which one of the following pairs is not correctly matched ? (a) 3 Corps : Dimapur (b) 4 Corps : Tezpur (c) 14 Corps : Leh (d) 33 Corps : Srinagar

Options

a

3 Corps : Dimapur

b

4 Corps : Tezpur

c

14 Corps : Leh

d

33 Corps : Srinagar

Answer

Explanation

Pair (d) is not correctly matched and forms the required answer. The 33 Corps (the 'Trishakti Corps') is headquartered at Sukna near Siliguri in West Bengal, tasked with guarding the strategic Siliguri Corridor and borders, rather than being based in Srinagar. The headquarters of the army's security corps in Srinagar is the 15 Corps ('Chinar Corps'). Pairs (a), (b), and (c) are all completely accurate operational military headquarters configurations.
