Correct option is C

The correct answer is (c) Mizoram.
· As of 2022, Mizoram has the least number of operational airports among the listed options.
· The state has only one operational airport, Lengpui Airport, which serves as the primary airport for the region.
· Mizoram’s geographical terrain, being hilly and forested, makes airport construction and expansion challenging, limiting the number of operational airports in the state.

· Bihar, Maharashtra, and Karnataka have multiple operational airports each, with Maharashtra having one of the highest numbers due to its size and economic significance.
