The territory known as Yanam Puducherry shares boundaries with which state of India?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → Andhra Pradesh
The Union Territory of Puducherry is made up of four separate pieces of land, the old French settlements: Puducherry, Karaikal, Mahe and Yanam. Yanam is a small enclave on the delta of the Godavari, surrounded on all sides by Andhra Pradesh, so Andhra Pradesh is the only state it shares boundaries with.
The other parts lie far away from it: Puducherry and Karaikal are surrounded by Tamil Nadu, and Mahe by Kerala.
