The flood plain along river banks formed by newer alluvium is called:

  • A.Meander
  • B.River Valley
  • C.Delta
  • D.Khaddar

Answer: D

This newer alluvium is called khadar.

It lies in the low-lying flood plain beside the river, is renewed by silt at every flood, and is therefore fine, porous and highly fertile. The older alluvium on the higher terraces is bhangar, which is coarser and often contains lime nodules called kankar.
