Explanation:

The western coastal plains are an example of submerged coastal plain. Because of this
submergence it is a narrow belt and provides natural conditions for the development of
ports and harbours. Kandla, Mazagaon, JLN port Navha Sheva, Marmagao, Mangalore,
Cochin, etc. are some of the important natural ports located along the west coast. The rivers
flowing through the western coastal plain do not form any delta.
