Let us understand the connection between each indigenous group listed in List-I and their respective regions in List-II step-by-step:

1. (A) Mapuche ⇒ (III) Chile
The Mapuche are a group of indigenous inhabitants of south-central Chile and southwestern Argentina. They make up the largest indigenous group in Chile, representing a significant portion of the country's population, particularly in the Araucanía region.

2. (B) Kuna Tribe ⇒ (I) East of Panama Canal
The Kuna (Guna) people are an indigenous group of Panama and Colombia. They primarily inhabit the San Blas islands and the coastal forests along the Caribbean coast of Panama, which lies to the east of the Panama Canal zone.

3. (C) Indigenous people of Cordillera Region ⇒ (IV) Philippines
The Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) is located in the northern portion of the Luzon island in the Philippines. It is mountainous and home to several indigenous ethnolinguistic groups, collectively referred to as the Igorot people, who have preserved their unique cultural traditions and rice terraces.

4. (D) Tribal people of the Chittagong Hill Tracts ⇒ (II) Bangladesh
The Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) is an area located within the Chittagong Division in southeastern Bangladesh. It is home to many distinct indigenous tribal groups, collectively known as the Jumma people, including the Chakma, Marma, and Tripura tribes.
