Solution
The correct option is C Upper Gangetic plains
There is no alluvial basin in the world, which can compare with the Ganga Basin in terms of size, fertility, acreage and topography. It is the most densely populated river basin in the world and is often characterized as a granary or the bread basket of India. Alluvial soil is poor in organic matter deficient in nitrogen, rich in potassium and lime. They are formed by weathering of rocks and brought by river and wind. It is characteristic of Indogangetic plains.
