Which one of the following is a Ramsar site ?
Answer: C
The Ramsar site is Chilka lake.
Chilika Lake in Odisha, Asia's largest brackish-water lagoon, was designated in 1981 as one of India's first two Ramsar wetlands of international importance, together with Keoladeo National Park. It is a major wintering ground for migratory birds and home to the Irrawaddy dolphin.
Koyna, Ujani and Jayakwadi are large reservoirs in Maharashtra, created by dams on the Koyna, Bhima and Godavari rivers. Jayakwadi is a bird sanctuary, but none of the three had been listed under the Ramsar Convention.
