Answer : 1. "Andhra Pradesh"
Explanation :
The Prime Minister personally fed Punganur cows at his New Delhi residence recently. Punganur cows, native to Punganur village in Andhra Pradesh, are one of the smallest cattle breeds in the world, standing at 70-90 cm in height and weighing less than 200 kg. Known for their resilience to drought, they tolerate low quality feed and produce nutrient-rich milk with a fat content of 8%. These eco-friendly cows play an important role in cultural practices, as seen in temples in Andhra Pradesh, including the Tirupati Thirumala Temple.
