Solution

The correct option is D Odisha and West Bengal
  • The physiography and climate should be conducive for a population to thrive there. The Himalayas and the Northeastern regions of India are not favourites for human settlements because of climatic conditions and uneven terrain.
  • On the other hand, areas which have fertile soil are conducive to agriculture, like the Northern plains, as well as the eastern and western coastal plains. So, a lot more people tend to prefer living in such places.
  • There are areas which provide minerals and power resources, like the state of Odisha and West Bengal. Availability of such minerals leads to industrialisation.
