  • The "Deccan peninsula" extends  into the Indian Ocean facilitating India to build close contacts with the Western coast comprising Europe, Africa, & West Asia as well as with the Eastern coast comprising the East Asia & South-East Asia.
  • Since ancient times India has benefited from the large coastline and natural ports that enabled to carry out commerce & trade with its neighboring & remote nations. India has a distinct climate compared to the rest of Asia because of this factor.
  • On the Indian Ocean, no other nation has a long shoreline like India. The prominent position of India in the Indian Ocean therefore validates the naming the ocean after it.
