Solution

The correct option is D Near Hambantota port in Sri Lanka
Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport is located in Mattala South Sri Lanka and is roughly 20 km from Hambantota port. It has earned the reputation of being the world’s emptiest airport. India is keen to invest in this airport since it can serve as a listening post for India and thereby overlook the Chinese controlled port of Hambantota nearby.
