The Palk Strait separates India from
  1. A. Maldives
  2. B. Myanmar
  3. C. Indonesia
  4. D. Sri Lanka
Show answer and solution

Answer: (D) Sri Lanka

The Palk Strait, between Tamil Nadu and the island of Sri Lanka, connects the Bay of Bengal with the Palk Bay and the Gulf of Mannar. The Maldives lie southwest of India across the Eight Degree Channel, and Myanmar and Indonesia are separated from India by the Andaman Sea, so the options point to other water bodies.
