Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Bangar refers to old alluvial soil, which is found at higher elevations and is less fertile due to less frequent flooding. Khadar refers to new alluvial soil, deposited annually by rivers and is more fertile. In the given pair, I states Bangar is new alluvial (incorrect), and II states Khadar is old alluvial (incorrect). Therefore, both statements are false.
