Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C), (D)

The correct options are
B It gets flooded during monsoon season.
C It is known for being a salty desert.
D It looks very white from a distance during nightfall.

The deserts of Kutch are not sandy but full of salt. From a distance, on a moonlit night, the area looks very white. The sand is known for being saline in nature unlike normal sandy soil. It remains as a desert all year, except monsoons, when it gets flooded.
