Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: B
Explanation

The Agni-II is classified as an intermediate/medium-range, two-stage ballistic missile with a published operational range around 2,000 km. Slide-deck and overview sources list Agni-II’s range as approximately 2,000–2,500 km, indicating a nominal figure of about 2,000 km. Technical summaries from defence-industry reporting describe Agni-II as a two-stage, solid-fuel missile with a range of more than 2,000 km, reinforcing the same order of magnitude for its operational reach. Encyclopedic references similarly record the Agni-II as a two-stage system with a ~2,000 km range, so the closest option among the given choices is 2,000 km [1].
