The correct answer is (c) They are found in the plains of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh.
· The statement
"They are found in the plains of Bihar and Uttar Pradesh" is NOT true about the moist deciduous forests of India.
· Moist deciduous forests are primarily found in areas with substantial seasonal rainfall, such as the northeastern states, parts of central India, and along the Western Ghats.
· While Bihar and Uttar Pradesh have some forest cover, the predominant type in these plains is typically dry deciduous or other forest types rather than moist deciduous forests.
