What is the order of Bhabar and Terai?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: First Bhabar, then Terai
Moving southward from the foothills of the Shiwaliks, the Bhabar belt occurs first. The Terai lies south of it, where water that seeps underground in Bhabar re-emerges near the surface and may make the land marshy. Therefore, the correct order is Bhabar followed by Terai. Exam tip: remember the north-to-south sequence—Shiwaliks → Bhabar → Terai.
