@Thinker can you recheck the answer for question 4 in test 35

Tropical moist deciduous covers more area than dry deciduous.

ISFR 2019 clearly specifies tropical dry deciduous to be highest.

Thank you will update it.

@Thinker in question 8, ramganga river meets ganga at KANNAUJ and not HARDOI. please review. 

Ramganga meets Ganga near Kannauj City. However, the place falls within the territorial jurisdiction of the Hardoi district. Ultimately, as NCERT mentions Kannauj, we had rectified the answer.

 Sir, if Hardoi is the right answer, why has it been changed. It creates confusion. Had i not referred to the discussion thread, i had accepted that Hardoi was wrong. Sir pls consider having both the options correct for that question. Thankyou.

Yes..even this Link also mentions the same.Temperate vegetation is found at higher altitude in Himalayas.

But southern montane forests are closer to tropics, hence vegetation is temperate in higher regions. (Mentioned in ncert as well)

So there is no test on 25th jan?
