This question was previously asked in
UPSSSC PET 2026 Question Paper (01-Nov-2026) (Shift-2)
The correct answer is

Kavaratti

Lakshadweep is India's smallest Union Territory, a group of 36 coral islands in the Arabian Sea off the Kerala coast; only about ten of them are inhabited.

Kavaratti island is the administrative headquarters and capital of the Union Territory, where the Administrator's secretariat is located.

Minicoy is the southernmost inhabited island of the group and Andrott is the largest island by area, but neither is the capital. Port Blair (renamed Sri Vijaya Puram in 2024) is the capital of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, a different Union Territory in the Bay of Bengal.

Since Kavaratti, the capital, is among the given options, “None of the above” does not apply.

Kavaratti option is correct.
