The question asks for the pairs that are *not* correctly matched. Kolleru Lake is located in Andhra Pradesh, not Telangana. Satkosia Gorge is in Odisha. Kanjli Lake is in Punjab. Pala Wetland is in Mizoram. Therefore, only the first pair, Kolleru lake – Telangana, is incorrectly matched.

– Kolleru Lake is a large freshwater lake located between the deltas of the Krishna and Godavari rivers.
– Kolleru Lake is a designated Ramsar site and a wildlife sanctuary.

Ramsar sites are wetlands designated as Wetlands of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention. India has numerous Ramsar sites spread across its states and Union Territories, recognized for their ecological significance.
