The Barren island, the only active volcano in India, is located in __________.

  • A.Andaman
  • B.Nicobar
  • C.Lakshadweep
  • D.Minicoy

Answer: B

Barren Island is in the Andaman Islands.

Barren Island, India's only confirmed active volcano, lies in the Andaman Sea about 140 km north-east of Port Blair and belongs to the Andaman group of islands.

The Nicobar Islands lie further south, and Lakshadweep (which includes Minicoy) is a group of coral islands in the Arabian Sea with no volcano.

Barren Island has erupted repeatedly since 1991; Narcondam, also in the Andaman Sea, is a volcano generally regarded as dormant.
