• Wind Deposition Plains : Thar Desert

• River Deposition Plains : Northern Plains (India)

Answer 1

Marine Deposition Plains : Western Coastal Plains (India)

Explanation:

The Western Coastal Plains of India are not primarily formed by marine deposition, but are influenced by river sedimentation and erosion. Marine deposition plains are usually associated with features like estuaries and deltas, which are more common in places like the Sundarbans or Godavari Delta. In contrast, the Western Coastal Plains are shaped by coastal processes like waves and erosion.
