Roughly how long is the Gujarat coastline, as stated at the Ahmedabad security review?

  1. A.About 1,600 kilometres
  2. B.About 2,340 kilometres
  3. C.About 3,214 kilometres
  4. D.About 1,214 kilometres

Correct answer

B. About 2,340 kilometres

Explanation

The correct answer is about 2,340 kilometres. The review noted that Gujarat has a coastline of nearly 2,340 kilometres and that the state also shares an international boundary with Pakistan. Those two facts together explain the direction given at the meeting: surveillance along the coast and the border must be strengthened, and the Border Security Force, the state police, the Coast Guard and central agencies must coordinate far better than they do when each works on its own. Options A, C and D are wrong because none of those lengths was cited for Gujarat at this meeting; they are figures a candidate may confuse with other coastal states or with the total length of the Indian coastline. The point worth memorising is that Gujarat has the longest coastline among Indian states, and the figure quoted in this release is close to 2,340 kilometres. The coastal length, combined with the land border with Pakistan, is the reason Gujarat is treated as a sensitive state for smuggling and infiltration.
