The correct answer is
Shipki La Pass
Shipki La Pass is correct.
The Sutlej rises near Lake Mansarovar and Rakas Tal in Tibet and flows west across the Tibetan plateau.
It enters India through the Shipki La pass in the Kinnaur district of Himachal Pradesh, where the pass also carries a road link towards Tibet.
Zoji La links the Kashmir valley with Ladakh, and Nathu La connects Sikkim with Tibet; the Sutlej does not flow through either of these, nor through Thang La.
