b. Jharkhand
c. West bengal
d. Madhya pradesh

Answer 1

Hint: Landlocked means the part of the world that does not have the limits of a large body of water like the sea. India has a large coastline, which is covered by the sea on three sides. The Indian Ocean, Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea.

Complete solution:
West Bengal, the state of India, is located in the eastern part of the country. It is situated to the south-west by the state, to the north of the state of Sikkim and the country of Bhutan, to the north-east from the state of Assam, east to the country of Bangladesh, south of the Bay of Bengal. To the west of Odisha, by the states of Jharkhand and Bihar, and to the northwest by the country of Nepal.

West Bengal, the state of India, is located in the eastern part of the country. It is situated to the south-west by the state, to the north of the state of Sikkim and the country of Bhutan, to the north-east from the state of Assam, east to the country of Bangladesh, south of the Bay of Bengal. To the west of Odisha, by the states of Jharkhand and Bihar, and to the northwest by the country of Nepal.

West Bengal can be broadly divided into two natural geographical divisions - the Gangetic plain in the south and the Sub-Himalayan and Himalayan regions in the north. The Gangetic plain has fertile alluvial soil deposited by the Ganges (Ganges) river and its tributaries and distributaries.

It also has several marshes and shallow lakes composed of dead river courses. Indeed, the Ganges, which now passes through the narrow central part of the state before entering Bangladesh, has been steadily moving east for centuries; Only small amounts of its water now goes to the sea through the western distributors, the chief of which is the Hooghly (Hooghly). The state capital, Kolkata, is located on the Hooghly in the southern part of West Bengal. Another important river, Damodar, joins Hooghly, southwest of Kolkata. The elevation of the plain rises slowly towards the west; Uday is near the Chota Nagpur Plateau in the neighbouring state of Jharkhand.

Hence, the correct answer is option c.

Note:
The climate of West Bengal is transitional between tropical wet-dry in the southern parts and humid subtropical in the north. There is a seasonal disparity in rainfall across West Bengal. For example, Kolkata has an average of about 64 inches (1,625 mm) per year, of which an average of 13 inches (330 mm) falls in August and is less than 1 inch (25 mm) in December. The state is also subject to considerable variability from year to year.
