The correct answer is

Himachal Pradesh

The Manimahesh fair is a major religious gathering and pilgrimage centred on the sacred Manimahesh Lake, which lies in the Bharmour region of the western Himalayas.

The lake sits high in the Pir Panjal range at the foot of the Manimahesh Kailash peak and is a deeply revered pilgrimage site dedicated to Lord Shiva.

Devotees undertake the Manimahesh Yatra to the lake, usually around the festival of Krishna Janmashtami in the month of Bhadrapada, and the fair coincides with this annual pilgrimage.

This fair and yatra take place in the Chamba district of Himachal Pradesh, making it one of the state's most important religious events.

It is not associated with Kerala, Tamil Nadu or Assam, which lie in different parts of the country and hold their own distinct fairs and festivals.

Hence, the Manimahesh fair is held in Himachal Pradesh.
