India’s maritime extent is understood from what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Long coastline and island groups

The governing concept is maritime extent, which refers to a country’s relationship with seas and oceans through its coastline, offshore islands and surrounding waters. India’s long coastline along the Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean and Bay of Bengal, together with the Andaman and Nicobar and Lakshadweep island groups, demonstrates its extensive maritime presence. Therefore, option A is correct. Northern mountains describe India’s relief and landward boundary, not maritime extent. A land boundary alone cannot show ocean access, and desert regions are inland physical features. The coastline and islands also support ports, fishing, marine transport, trade and strategic links, making maritime extent important geographically and economically.
