D Correct answer
Explanation

Pykara is a hydroelectric power plant located in Tamil Nadu, not a thermal power plant. Thermal plants generate electricity by burning fossil fuels like coal, oil, or gas. Dhuvaran, Faridabad, and Obra are thermal power stations that use coal or gas as fuel. Pykara harnesses water power from the Pykara river in the Nilgiri hills.
