Detailed Solution

Alluvial soil is found in Rajasthan.
The most prevalent and significant type of soil is the alluvial soil found in Rajasthan. In actuality, alluvial soil makes up the entirety of the northern plains. These have been left behind by the Indus, Ganga, and Brahmaputra, three significant Himalayan river systems. These soils also have a narrow corridor that runs into Rajasthan and Gujarat. The eastern coastal plains, particularly in the deltas of the Mahanadi, Godavari, Krishna, and Kaveri rivers, may also include alluvial material. The ratios of sand, silt, and clay in the alluvial soil vary. The size of the soil particles appears to increase as we approach more inland, near the river valleys.
