The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Each option pairs a CSIR research institute with its host city, only one pairing is incorrect.

  1. Central Institute of Mining and Fuel Research, Dhanbad: correct, this institute is based in Dhanbad, Jharkhand.
  2. Central Building Research Institute, Roorkee: correct, it functions from Roorkee, Uttarakhand.
  3. Central Arid Zone Research Institute, Jodhpur: correct, it studies desert ecology from its Jodhpur campus in Rajasthan.
  4. Central Drug Research Institute, Kanpur: incorrect, this institute is actually located in Lucknow, not Kanpur.

Since the Central Drug Research Institute is headquartered in Lucknow, option D is the wrongly matched pair.
