Intersecting Points of East-West and North-South Corridors
The East-West corridor connects Silchar in Assam to Porbandar in Gujarat, whereas the North-South corridor connects Sri Nagar in Jammu and Kashmir to Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu. The intersection point of these two corridors can be determined by analyzing the geographical location of the given options.
Option 'Jhansi'
Jhansi is located in the state of Uttar Pradesh, which lies in the central-northern part of India. It is not on the route of either the East-West corridor or the North-South corridor. Therefore, Jhansi is not the correct answer.
Option 'Agra'
Agra is situated in the state of Uttar Pradesh, just south of Jhansi. Similar to Jhansi, Agra does not lie on either the East-West or the North-South corridor. Hence, Agra is not the correct answer.
Option 'Jabalpur'
Jabalpur is located in the central part of India, specifically in the state of Madhya Pradesh. It is relatively closer to the East-West corridor compared to Jhansi and Agra. However, it is still not on the route of either corridor. Therefore, Jabalpur is also not the correct answer.
Option 'Nagpur'
Nagpur is situated in the state of Maharashtra, which lies in the central-western part of India. It is relatively closer to the East-West corridor compared to the previous options. However, Nagpur is not on the route of the North-South corridor. Hence, Nagpur is not the correct answer.
Correct Answer: Option 'Jhansi'
Jhansi is located in the state of Uttar Pradesh, just south of Agra. It lies on the East-West corridor as well as the North-South corridor. The intersection point of these two corridors is in Jhansi. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'Jhansi'.
In conclusion, the East-West corridor connecting Silchar and Porbandar and the North-South corridor connecting Sri Nagar and Kanyakumari intersect at Jhansi.
