Question
Is the following sentence right or wrong? Correct the wrong one.
The north-western part of India is densely populated.
Solution
Wrong
Correct: The northern plains and certain other areas of India are densely populated.
Population in India is unevenly distributed. The northern plains have been densely populated since centuries due to fertile land, availability of water and economic activities. Rivers like Ganga, Yamuna provide large tracts of fertile land apart from water. Also, the terrain is not a difficult one to travel. Due to availability of even fertile land and water, prefer settling in the northern plains as opposed to the desert areas of northwest India.
