Why is the Terai region different from Bhabar?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It is wetter and marshy
In the Bhabar belt, streams disappear into porous deposits of coarse pebbles and boulders. In the Terai belt south of it, this water re-emerges near the surface, making the land very wet and marshy. Option B describes Bhabar, not Terai. Exam tip: remember Bhabar as the belt where water sinks, and Terai as the belt where it reappears.
