Solution
The correct option is D Deltaic regions of Mahanadi, Godavari and Krishna
Well irrigation is used to get subsoil water for various purposes. Areas such as Northern plains, deltas of Mahanadi, Godavari, Krishna, Kaveri, parts of Narmada and Tapi valleys are some of the areas which are conducive for well irrigation due to ease in digging wells and prevalence of sweet groundwater.
Rocky and uneven surface in Peninsular India are not conducive due to difficulty in digging wells and lack of groundwater, same is the case with dry tracts of Rajasthan or Gujarat and brackish groundwater regions of UP as the groundwater is not fit for irrigation or human consumption.
