The correct option is B Natural Harbour
Cochin Port or Kochi Port is a major port on the Arabian
Sea - Laccadive Sea – Indian Ocean sea-route in the
city of Kochi and is one of the largest ports in India.
The Cochin port was
formed naturally due to the flooding of the Periyar River in 1341 AD, and, over
time has become a major flashpoint for trade. The port in its initial history
attracted European merchants- predominantly Dutch and Portuguese- and was later
expanded by the British with the establishment of Willingdon Island.
