Correct answer: Manipur

Explanation: The correct answer is C. Manipur. The Kuki are an indigenous ethnic group mainly found in the north-eastern region of India, especially in Manipur. They belong to the larger Chin-Kuki-Mizo group and are primarily settled in the hilly districts of Manipur, such as Churachandpur and Kangpokpi.
