By what name is the Indian Desert also known?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Thar Desert

The direct answer is A, Thar Desert. The Indian Desert is the arid physical division found mainly in north-western India, especially Rajasthan and adjoining areas, and it is commonly called the Thar Desert. “Arid” means receiving very little rainfall, so sand, sandy plains and sparse vegetation are common features. Option A is correct because Thar is the accepted alternate name of the Indian Desert. Option B, Ganga Plain, is a fertile alluvial plain formed by river deposits, not a desert. Option C, Deccan Plateau, is a broad elevated plateau in peninsular India. Option D, Kachchh Plain, refers to a different regional landform in Gujarat and is not the standard name for the whole Indian Desert. Memory cue: Indian Desert = Thar, and Thar is mainly in the west.
