Alluvial fan is seen in India?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
An alluvial fan is an accumulation of the sediments that fan outwards from a concentrated source of sediments, such as a narrow canyon emerging from an escarpment. This accumulation is shaped like a section of a shallow cone, with its apex at the source of sediments.
An alluvial fan is seen in India near Haridwar as it is along the Himalayas mountain front on the Indo-Gangetic plain.
