Geography
India's Neighbours
भारत के पड़ोसी देश
In this Class 9 Geography topic from the chapter “India – Size and Location,” students identify and locate India’s neighbouring countries on a political map. They study land neighbours such as Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Myanmar, along with the maritime neighbours Sri Lanka and the Maldives. The topic explains India’s boundaries, the role of the Himalayas and surrounding seas, and how location connects India with the geography, movement and interactions of the wider region.
