C Correct answer
Explanation

The Bhabhar is a narrow belt located along the foot of the Shiwalik range where rivers deposit heavy loads of pebbles and rocks. Due to the high porosity of these pebble-laden soils, small streams disappear underground in this region. Thus, it is uniquely characterized as a pebbles land.
