In which of the following districts of Rajasthan are the ‘Barchans’ found?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Jaisalmer.
The 'Barchans', which are crescent-shaped sand dunes, are found in the Jaisalmer district of Rajasthan. Jaisalmer, located in the Thar Desert, is known for its vast sandy expanses, where Barchans are formed by the shifting winds. These dunes are typically found in arid desert regions and are a distinctive feature of Rajasthan's landscape, particularly in the western part of the state, which experiences dry, windy conditions conducive to the formation of such dunes.
