Solution
The correct option is C Arabian Sea
The Duqm island is situated on the southeastern seaboard of Oman, overlooking the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. It is strategically located, in close proximity to the Chabahar port, developed by India, in Iran. In a strategic move to expand its footprint in the Indian Ocean region, India has secured access to the key Port of Duqm for military use and logistical support. Following this pact, the services of Duqm port and dry dock will be available for maintenance of Indian military vessels. This was one of the key takeaways of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent visit to Oman.
