Eastern Coast of India.....
The eastern coast of India is located along the east coast of India. It is washed by the Bay of Bengal and extends from the Ganga delta to Kanyakumari (North to South). Its width ranges from 80 to 100 km that makes it more extensive and broad than its western counterpart. It is an aggradational plain which means an increase in the land elevation. It is characterized by sea beaches, lagoons, and offshore bars.
It is a sandy coast with straight shorelines and mostly comprises recent and tertiary alluvium deposits. It has received many large river-deltas made by the large rivers and receives rainfall from the North East Monsoons. Although the cyclonic storms are frequent on this coast, it is suitable for the cultivation of rice and jute.
The eastern coast cuts through the three Indian states: Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, and Odisha. So, it is also has some regional names like Utkal Coast in the Odisha and Coromandel Coast or Payan Ghat in the Tamil Nadu.
