What is the most suitable reason for the development of inland drainage in the Thar region?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Low rainfall sandy terrain and closed basins

The direct answer is C: low rainfall, sandy terrain and closed basins. Inland drainage means that a stream does not reach the sea; it ends in a lake, desert depression, or disappears through evaporation and seepage. The Thar is very dry, so evaporation is strong and rivers have little water. Its sandy surface absorbs water, while enclosed low areas do not provide an outward route. Therefore a seasonal stream such as the Luni may end inland instead of joining the sea. A is wrong because the Thar is not a region of dense glaciers or heavy snow. B is wrong because a deep sea gulf would provide an outlet, not inland drainage. D is wrong because an eastern-coast delta is a depositional coastal feature, not the cause of drainage in the Thar. Memory cue: dry desert plus closed basin means inland drainage.
