C Correct answer
Explanation

The Mizo Hills were historically known as the Lushai Hills during the British colonial period. This name came from the dominant Lushai tribe in the region. After independence, the term 'Mizo' (meaning 'hill people') gained prominence, leading to the renaming of the territory as Mizoram when it became a state. Green, Broad, and White Hills are not historical names for this region.
