[D] Hot springs

Answer: C
Notes:

Explanation – Pangong Tso lake is the geographical feature that is NOT found near Demchok. Demchok is located at the confluence of the Charding Nullah and Indus River, in the Nyoma tehsil of Leh district, Ladakh, near the Line of Actual Control (LAC) between India and China. It is a significant area due to its strategic location along the disputed border between India and China. After the 1962 Sino-Indian War, the village of Demchok was divided in two parts, with Demchok, Ladakh administered by India and Dêmqog, Tibet Autonomous Region administered by China. The two parts are separated by the Charding Nullah stream which marks the Line of Actual Control (LAC).
