Q. Which maritime channel separates Lakshadweep Islands from the Maliku Atoll?
Answer: 9° Channel
Notes: The 9° Channel is the maritime boundary that separates the Lakshadweep Islands and Maliku Atoll. The channel is named so because it is located on the 9° North latitude. On the other hand, the 10° Channel is another significant maritime boundary in the Indian Ocean region that separates the Andaman islands from the Nicobar islands, situated on the 10° North latitude. Coco and Kardiva Channels serve their respective geographical divisions, unrelated to the Lakshadweep or Maliku Atoll.
