\nThe correct matching is A-2, B-3, C-4, D-1.
\n<\/section>\n
\nMatching the ports with their features:
\nA. Mumbai: India’s largest port (including JNPT nearby) in terms of cargo handling, hence associated with Feature 2 (Biggest port of India).
\nB. Visakhapatnam: Known for its natural, land-locked harbour, associated with Feature 3.
\nC. Chennai: One of the oldest ports on the Eastern Coast, particularly known as an old artificial harbour, associated with Feature 4.
\nD. Kochi (Cochin): Historically famous as a trading port on the Arabian Sea and often referred to as the “Queen of the Arabian Sea,” associated with Feature 1.
\n<\/section>\n
\nBased on the matches A-2, B-3, C-4, D-1, the correct code is (b). Mumbai Port and the adjacent Jawaharlal Nehru Port (JNPT) together handle a major share of India’s maritime trade, making it the largest port complex. Visakhapatnam’s harbour is protected by a natural rock formation called Dolphin’s Nose, making it land-locked. Chennai Port is an important artificial harbour on the east coast, established in 1881, making it one of the oldest. Kochi’s moniker “Queen of the Arabian Sea” reflects its historical significance as a major trading port on the southwest coast of India.
