Concept & Option Breakdown
Standard Reference Verified• Point 5 (Kochi, Kerala): Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) -> A-5 • Point 2 (Hisar, Haryana): Central Sheep Breeding Farm (CSBF) -> B-2 • Point 1 (Karnal, Haryana): National Dairy Research Institute (NDRI) -> C-1 • Point 4 (Hyderabad, Telangana): National Institute of Agricultural Extension Management (MANAGE) -> D-4
CMFRI is a marine institute, so it must be on the coast (Point 5 - Kochi). This narrows options to (a) and (b). NDRI is situated in Karnal (Point 1), which directly yields option (b).
