Solution

The correct option is B Tamil Nadu

  • Tank irrigation includes storage of water by constructing a bund across the stream. Peninsular plateau is leading in tank irrigation out of which Andhra Pradesh stands first.
  • It is also suitable in Tamil Nadu region.
  • Tank irrigation becomes continuous source of water and helps in preventing wastage of rain water especially in Deccan region where temperature is very high.
  • But the demerit of tank irrigation is that water can be lost through evaporation.
