Solution

The correct option is C Erode

Erode district in terms of area. (2307 sq km)

Nilgiris district in terms of percentage. (67%)

Both are neighboring districts. Their adjoining districts like Coimbatore and Salem, Krishnagiri and Dharmapuri also has higher forest cover. Overall Kongu districts has high % of forest cover since they fall in western ghats.

Delta districts has negligible forest cover since farming has destroyed all the forests and wild life several centuries ago.
Hence option C is correct.
