Solution

The correct option is C
Both 1 and 2
Explanation:

Statement 1 is correct: The Himalayas separate Indian subcontinent from Central and East Asian countries. They are not only physical barriers but also act as climatic, drainage and cultural divides. The Himalayas are serving as a barrier to monsoon winds laden with moisture from the South West. As these winds strike the mountain it causes rainfall in the Northern plains. If not for the Himalayas the South-West monsoon winds will enter Central Asia depriving rainfall in the Northern plains.

Statement 2 is correct: Karewas are dense deposits of glacial clay and other materials, and suitable for cultivation of saffron. It also aids in almond, walnut, corn, and orchard cultivation. Zafran is a standard local saffron variety.
