Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (a) i, iii and iv

Explanation

The Gogabeel lake is in Katihar district, near the Ganga and the Mahananda. It was declared Bihar's first community reserve and in 2025 a Ramsar site, and bird counts record many water birds there.

It is not in Samastipur, Kaimur or Nalanda, so the answer is i, iii and iv.
