What is the correct basis of the economic importance of the Chota Nagpur Plateau?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Minerals and energy resources

The governing concept is the relationship between physical regions and resource-based economic activity. The Chota Nagpur Plateau contains extensive deposits of coal, iron ore, mica, bauxite and other minerals. Coal supports thermal power and industries, while iron ore supplies the iron and steel sector. This combination has encouraged mining, metal processing, engineering and transport development, making the region an important mineral and industrial belt. Option C is therefore correct because it identifies minerals and energy resources as the foundation of its economic importance. Marine fishing belongs to coastal waters, coral islands are a coastal or oceanic feature, and glacial tourism is associated with high mountain environments, so A, B and D do not explain the plateau’s main economic role.
