Major Physiographic Divisions

01The Western Coastal Plain is generally associated with which coast?

0 reads0 helpful★ – (0)

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. Arabian Sea coast

The Western Coastal Plain is the narrow strip of lowland along India's western side. It lies between the western slopes of the Peninsular Plateau and the Arabian Sea. Because of this location, it is also called the coastal plain along the Arabian Sea. It includes regional sections such as the Konkan, Karnataka coast, and Malabar coast. The western position, not a mountain or desert feature, is the key clue.

To solve the question, connect the word “western” with the sea on India's west. The Arabian Sea is west of the Indian mainland, while the Bay of Bengal is on the eastern side. Therefore option A is correct. Option B describes the Eastern Coastal Plain, and options C and D do not name the sea associated with India's western coastal lowland. The direction and coastline match directly, so no further calculation is needed.
