Correct Answer:
(d) Rann of Kutch
Solution:
The Runn of Kutch is a Salt Marshy land. It is located in the Thar desert in the Kachchh district of Western Gujarat, India. This area was a once a sprawling shallow of the Arabian sea until a constant geological shift closed off the connection with the sea. Over the years, the region gradually became a seasonal marshy salt desert. The present day shoreline and the sand dune deposition of Kutch's is the result of hundreds of years of rainless years around 5,000 years ago.
