{'srinagar': [2, 0, 3, 1], 'south corridor': [0, 0, 4, 0], 'kanyakumari': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'jabalpur': [1, 0, 3, 0], 'porhandar': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'silchar': [0, 0, 2, 1], 'nagpur': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'agra': [3, 0, 0, 0]}

The correct answer is option 1 - Jhansi. The East-West Corridor connects Silchar in Assam to Porbandar in Gujarat, while the North-South Corridor connects Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir to Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu. These two major corridors intersect each other at Jhansi, which is located in the state of Uttar Pradesh.

Option 2 - Agra is not the correct answer because the East-West Corridor does not intersect with the North-South Corridor at Agra.

Option 3 - Jabalpur is also not the correct answer because the East-West Corridor does not intersect with the North-South Corridor at Jabalpur.

Option 4 - Nagpur is not the correct answer because the East-West Corridor does not intersect with the North-South Corridor at Nagpur.

To summarize, Jhansi is the correct answer as it is the location where the East-West Corridor and North-South Corridor intersect each other.
