K2 is correct because it is belongs to the Baltoro Karakoram mountain system. It is also associated with a high peak of the Karakoram, also called Mount Godwin-Austen, which provides a second reliable identifying clue. These features are standard physical-geography facts and are useful for map-based and statement-based competitive-exam questions. Why the other options are incorrect: Option A — Kangchenjunga: It is is closely associated with Khangchendzonga National Park in Sikkim; this is the specific geographical association of Kangchenjunga. Option B — Nanda Devi: It is is enclosed by the Nanda Devi Sanctuary and associated national park; this is the specific geographical association of Nanda Devi. Option C — Saltoro Kangri: It is should be associated with the Karakoram rather than the main Himalayan arc; this is the specific geographical association of Saltoro Kangri. Exam Takeaway: Connect K2 with “belongs to the Baltoro Karakoram mountain system” for quick revision.
