In the Punjab Plains, what is the land between two rivers called?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Doab

Answer: A, Doab. The word ‘Doab’ comes from two words meaning ‘two’ and ‘water’ or ‘rivers’. In geography, it describes the tract of land lying between two rivers, especially in the alluvial Punjab Plains. Rivers deposit fine sediments on their floodplains, and the land between neighbouring rivers may become suitable for farming. A is correct because it exactly names this inter-river region. B, Dun, is a longitudinal valley lying between Himalayan ranges, so it is not land between two rivers. C, a delta, forms where a river deposits sediments near its mouth, often in a branching pattern; it is not defined by two rivers. D, a barchan, is a crescent-shaped sand dune formed by wind in dry areas. Memory cue: ‘two rivers = doab’; do not confuse a doab with a delta.
