The correct option is B Only 2

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The western coastal plains are narrow in the middle and get broader towards north and south. ​Due to this, rivers do not form deltas here. Narmada and Taoi form well developed Estuaries here.
The Malabar coast has got certain distinguishing features in the form of ‘Kayals’ (backwaters), which are used for fishing, inland navigation and also due to its special attraction for tourists.​
