Answer 1

Answer:

In winter, Ladakh imports vegetables worth lakhs from other parts of the country. ... Farmers here construct vegetable cellars, and store potatoes and onions underground. They take them out for consumption in winter. Some people pickle vegetables like carrot to eat in winter.(1)

We find tropical deciduous trees alongside the Ganga river and the Brahmaputra. Some common trees here are Sal, Teak and Peepal. The Brahmaputra's plain particularly is home to Thick Bamboo groves while the delta region has plenty of mangrove forests.(2)

The trend of Indian history shows that foreigners have usually enjoyed a somewhat special status thereby humbling the natives of the land owing to various factors, one of them being the innate inability of successive dispensations to read the mind of foreigners and take corrective action. There has also been a lamentable lack of vision in terms of matters domestic, thereby making things easierthan- expected for foreigners to trade, proselytise, terrorise, rule, misrule, overrule, subjugate and exploit the Indians for several hundred years, the end of which came only in 1947.(3)
