प्रश्न
Write geographical reason
There are dissimilarities between the eastern and western coasts of India.
उत्तर
There are dissimilarities between the eastern and western coasts of India because:
- The western coast borders the Arabian Sea whereas the Eastern coast borders the Bay of Bengal.
- On the western coast, spurs taking off from the Western Ghats extend right up to the coast. It’s width is also less and it is a rocky coast. On the other hand, the eastern coast has been formed due to the depositional work of rivers.
- As rivers that originate from the Western Ghats are short & swift, they form estuaries and not deltas whereas as the Eastern Ghats have gentle slope, the speed of the rivers is less and so they deposit the sediments brought with them at the coast, resulting in the formation of deltas
