Pangong Tso
Tso Moriri
Mirpal Tso

The correct answer is: B. Pangong Tso

Pangong Tso is a saltwater lake located in the Ladakh region of India and the Aksai Chin region of China. It is the second-largest lake in Ladakh, after Tso Moriri. The lake is located at an altitude of 4,250 meters (13,940 feet) and has a surface area of 604 square kilometers (233 square miles). The lake is fed by several glaciers and snowmelt, and it is drained by the Shyok River.

Pangong Tso is a popular tourist destination, and it is known for its stunning scenery. The lake is also home to a variety of wildlife, including snow leopards, Tibetan wolves, and brown bears.

The lake is located in the disputed territory between India and China. The Line of Control (LoC) is the de facto border between the two countries in Ladakh. The LoC runs through the middle of Pangong Tso, and the lake is therefore divided between India and China.

The status of Pangong Tso is one of the disputed issues between India and China. The two countries have been engaged in a border dispute for decades, and the issue of Pangong Tso is one of the most contentious.

In recent years, there has been an increase in tensions between India and China along the LoC. In 2020, there was a military standoff between the two countries at Pangong Tso. The standoff lasted for several months and ended with both countries agreeing to withdraw their troops from the area.

The status of Pangong Tso is likely to remain a disputed issue between India and China for the foreseeable future.
