Answer 1

Most of India’s foreign trade is carried through sea and air.

Explanation:

India’s foreign trade relies almost entirely on sea and air because of its long coastline and limited land trade with neighbours. Sea transport handles around 95% of trade volume, making it the cheapest way to move heavy cargo like oil and machinery across continents. Air transport is used alongside it to quickly move expensive, urgent, or lightweight goods like medicines and electronics.
