Question

Where does the Bangar region in Punjab lie?

• A. In the Doab region
• B. In the floodplains
• C. In the Kutchh region
• D. In the Khadar region

Answer 1

The correct option is B In the floodplains

The Bangar and Khadar regions both lie in the floodplains. When the Himalayas were forming, the existing rivers changed their course several times, and there was intense vertical erosion causing floods in large areas. Eventually, when the water level receded, some areas were left with a large deposition of alluvial soil. This region is called Bangar Region.
