Model Answer

(B) Gulf of Khambhat and Gulf of Kuchchh, Gujarat

The Gulf of Khambhat and the Gulf of Kuchchh in Gujarat on the western coast provide ideal conditions for utilising tidal energy.

Explanation

The textbook explicitly names the Gulf of Khambhat and Gulf of Kuchchh (Gujarat) as western coast tidal energy sites. Gangetic delta (Sunderbans) is on the eastern coast. Nagarcoil–Madurai is for wind energy, and Krishna–Godavari basin relates to natural gas. Always link the energy type to the correct region and coast.
