Answer:
The northern plains in India have the maximum land area.
Explanation:
Also known as the Gangetic Plain, its total area is 6, 52,000 square kilometers.
Ganga, Brahmaputra, Indus, etc., are some major tributaries of the Himalayas which possesses large amounts of alluvial deposits.
Since the northern plains are situated near the Himalayas, these rivers and its tributaries deposit the alluvium over these plains. The Northern plains are very fertile due to these deposits.
Almost 40% of the total Indian population resides here and agriculture is their main occupation.
