What do bathing areas and drains inside houses in Indus cities indicate?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Cleanliness and civic facilities
Bathrooms, drains and connections between household and street drainage show that many Indus settlements paid attention to water management, sanitation and urban facilities. These features are evidence of settled city planning, not nomadic life or war preparation. They also cannot by themselves prove a single religious practice such as animal worship.
