Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The Indus Valley Civilisation marked the beginning of agriculture in India. According to Indian history, rice and cotton were two crops grown in the Indus valley. The Vindhya Mountains are in the centre of India, and the Garo Hills are to the northeast. Among the other places where agriculture advanced were some of these. The north of the Vindhya Mountains is where rice was initially cultivated. Some of the first cities grew prosperously on the banks of the Indus River and its tributaries about 4700 years ago. Cities later grew along the sea beaches around 2500 years ago and on the banks of the Ganga and its tributaries. Thus in India, there were places like the Indus Valley Civilisation where agriculture developed in the early days.
