Correct answer: B

Zoji La, in the Zaskar range, links the Kashmir valley with Ladakh and is often shut by snow in winter.
Nathu La links Sikkim with Tibet, Shipki La links Himachal Pradesh with Tibet, and Rohtang links Manali with Lahaul.

Worth noting

'La' means pass in Tibetan and Ladakhi, so it appears at the end of most of these names.
