Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: A
Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 (A-2, B-3, C-1, D-4). This matching accurately reflects the specialized training institutions of the Indian Army and their geographical locations.

  • High Altitude Warfare School (HAWS): Located in Gulmarg, Jammu & Kashmir, it is a premier institute for mountain and winter warfare training.
  • Counter Insurgency and Jungle Warfare School (CIJW): Situated in Varaingte, Mizoram, it provides specialized training in unconventional warfare and forest combat.
  • Paratrooper’s Training School (PTS): Based in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, it is the primary center for training Indian paratroopers and conducting airborne operations training.
  • Combat Army Aviation Training School (CAATS): Located at Nashik Road, Maharashtra, it serves as the main training hub for the Army Aviation Corps pilots and technicians.

Options 2, 3, and 4 are incorrect as they mismatch these critical military establishments with their respective headquarters, failing to align the specific terrain-based training with its logical geographical setting.
