AI explanation

To answer this question, we need to understand the structure of a pin code. In many countries, including India, a pin code is a numerical code used to identify specific locations for the purpose of sorting and delivering mail.

In the case of India, a pin code consists of 6 digits. The first digit represents the region, the second digit represents the sub-region, and the remaining four digits represent the specific post office or delivery area.

The last three digits in a pin code represent the sorting district. A sorting district is a geographical area within a state or union territory where mail is sorted before being delivered to the specific post offices or delivery areas within that district.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C) Sorting District. The last three digits in a pin code represent the sorting district.
