Correct answer: (D) Located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn
Explanation
Most International Solar Alliance members lie between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.
This tropical belt receives abundant, near-vertical sunlight ideal for solar power.
The zone between the North Pole and the Tropic of Capricorn is far too broad to describe them.
The zone between the Tropic of Capricorn and the South Pole does not hold most members.
They are spread across the sun-rich belt, not confined to the equator alone.
The alliance, launched by India and France, is headquartered in Gurugram.
