YOUR QUESTION'S ANSWER

The himalayan region has rugged terrain and so it is very difficult to lay railway tracks along the steep slopes. Hence, this region has only three railway lines.

Further, the condition in west Rajasthan, frequent flood in Brahmaputra valley, thick forest and rough terrain in North east India has led to a few railway lines in these region.

The northern plains of India is a flat land with rich alluvial soil. It has highly developed agricultural and industrial sectors with high population. Hence, it has a dense network of railways .

Peninsular India is a plateau region with an undulated terrian, hence it has a moderate railway network
