C Correct answer
Explanation

National Highway 5 (NH5) connected Kolkata to Chennai, running along the eastern coast of India. This highway was an important coastal route connecting West Bengal to Tamil Nadu through Odisha and Andhra Pradesh. Options A (Kolkata-Dhule), B (Kolkata-Nasik), and D (Kolkata-Vijayawada) are incorrect as they do not represent the full extent of NH5's eastern coastal corridor. Note: The highway numbering system has since changed, but in older records, NH5 was indeed Kolkata-Chennai.
