It's ARUNACHAL PRADESH! Not ARUNANCHAL PRADESH!

And yes, Arunachal Pradesh is the eastern state while Andhra Pradesh is one of the southern ones.

There is a factual inaccuracy in one of the questions. India does not have a national language as such. Hindi is used for parliamentary purposes and is one of the official languages. Hope this comment did not seem rude. Great quiz BTW
