Sariska Tiger Reserve is located in which district?

Explanation

Sariska is the protected area linked to Alwar district in Rajasthan. The official Rajasthan State Biodiversity Board page lists Sariska under wildlife protection areas and gives its district as Alwar, which directly fixes the district location. Ranthambore is associated with Sawai Madhopur, Ramgarh-Vishdhari with Bundi, and Mukundara Hills with Kota and Chittorgarh. Sariska is part of the Aravalli Hills, was declared a tiger reserve in 1978, and is known for the successful relocation of tigers. The decisive map fact is the Sariska-Alwar pairing.

Why the other options are wrong

• (A) Sawai Madhopur is the district associated with Ranthambore, not Sariska.
• (B) Bundi is linked with Ramgarh-Vishdhari, while Sariska is located in Alwar district.
• (C) Kota is associated with Mukundara Hills, whereas Sariska is located in Alwar district.

Concept

This tests Rajasthan's protected-area geography: matching national parks, tiger reserves and sanctuaries with their districts. District-location pairs recur in RAS because nearby reserves are easy to confuse.
