This question was previously asked in
UPSSSC Lower PCS 2026 Question Paper (23-Aug-2026)
The correct answer is

Pilibhit Tiger Reserve

Chuka Beach lies within the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve in the Terai belt of Uttar Pradesh, close to the Nepal border.

Despite the name, it is not a sea beach. It is a stretch of sand along the Sharda Sagar reservoir where the Sharda canal meets the forest, and the reserve's eco-tourism programme offers boating, tree huts and guided safaris there, run with local community participation. The revenue supports both conservation and village livelihoods.

The other reserves are elsewhere in the state and do not contain Chuka. Dudhwa lies in Lakhimpur Kheri, Amangarh adjoins Corbett in Bijnor, and Ranipur in Chitrakoot is the Bundelkhand reserve notified in 2022.

Hence, the answer is the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve.
