Correct Answer: 1, 2 and 4


Solution : The correct answer is 1, 2 and 4.

Regional, economic, and political forces have shaped the structure of the Indian railway network. The north Indian Plain offers the best circumstances for the growth of railroads because of its level terrain, dense population, and productive agriculture. However, the abundance of rivers necessitates the construction of bridges, which is very expensive.
