Question

Western coastal plains are example of submerged coastal plain why

Answer 1

the total coastline of India (7517 km), that of the peninsula is 6100 km between the peninsular plateau and the sea. The peninsular plateau of India is flanked by narrow coastal plains of varied width from north to south.
On the basis of the location and active geomorphologic processes, these can be broadly divided into two parts:

The western coastal plains

The eastern coastal plains.

Answer 2

1. Extent: The Western Coastal Plains are a thin strip of coastal plains with a width of 50 kms between the Arabian Sea and the Western Ghats.

2. Subdivisions: Extending from the Gujarat coast in the north to the Kerala coast in the south, the western coast may be divided into following divisions:

Kachchh and Kathiawar coast in Gujarat,Konkan coast in Maharashtra,Goan Coast in Karnataka, andMalabar coast in Kerala

Note: Kutch and Kathiawar, though an extension of Peninsular plateau (because Kathiawar is made of the Deccan Lava and there are tertiary rocks in the Kutch area), they are still treated as an integral part of the Western Coastal Plains as they are now levelled down.
