A
Jammu and Kashmir
💡 Explanation:
Jammu and Kashmir contains India's highest point, K2 (Mount Godwin-Austen) at 8,611 meters, which is part of the Karakoram range near the China border. K2 is the second-highest peak in the world after Everest and is located in the India-administered territory of Ladakh (formerly part of J&K). While some sources might dispute this due to the region's complex geopolitical status, within the Indian context, J&K/Ladakh is recognized as housing this peak.
