Answer:
YOUR ANSWER IS OPTION(a)HIMALAYAN OAK AND RHODODENDRON FORESTS.
Explanation:
During the colonial period "enrichment plantation" was done in India. The word enrichment plantation means plantation for beautification. Enrichment also means to fertilize or to make rich. Enrichment plantation is the process in which particular species of trees which are commercially profitable are planted after the removal of other species in the area. This causes the destruction of the natural forest. For instance, teak trees have been planted in South India after cutting down the natural forests. Chir Pine plantations have replaced the Himalayan oak and Rhododendron forests in the Himalayan region.
