Explanation:

- Let’s break it down: Lakshadweep doesn’t have its own High Court.

- Instead, it comes under the jurisdiction of the Kerala High Court.

- The Kerala High Court is situated in Kochi, Kerala.

- Tamil Nadu has the Madras High Court, which is for Tamil Nadu and Puducherry—not Lakshadweep.

- Andhra Pradesh has its own High Court, covering only Andhra Pradesh.

- Karnataka’s High Court covers Karnataka alone.

So, Option 2: Kerala is the correct answer. Lakshadweep’s legal matters are handled out of Kerala. That’s how the court system works for that territory.
