Solution

The correct option is B Alluvial soil
<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> The rivers originating from the Himalayas bring rich alluvial sediments down in the plains, creating the fertile alluvial soil. This fertile land is used for extensive agriculture and is a source of food security in our country.
