Which of the following islands is of volcanic origin?
Answer: C
The volcanic island is Barren Island.
Barren Island in the Andaman Sea is India's only active volcano, and it has erupted several times since 1991.
Lakshadweep is made of coral atolls, Majuli is a river island in the Brahmaputra, and Diu is a coastal island of limestone, so none of them is volcanic.
Barren Island lies about 135 km north-east of Port Blair in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands; Narcondam, also in the Andaman Sea, is a dormant volcano.
