in the Nilgiri Hills. The Western Ghats include the Kurinji mountain range. Hills of Tamilnadu
are located in the northeast and northwest. Valleys, Plateaus, Plains, Sea shores, Coastline
of Tamil Nadu have the third longest coastline in India, at about 910 km (570 mi). Whereas

Conclusion:
In conclusion, West Bengal and Tamil Nadu are both blessed with diverse and unique
ecosystems that contribute significantly to the natural and cultural heritage of India. West
Bengal has a predominantly Bengali culture, with Bengali being the primary language
spoken in the state. On the other hand, Tamil Nadu has a distinct Tamil culture and
language, with Tamil being the official language. Agriculture is the main activity in both the
states. The conservation and sustainable management of these ecosystems are crucial for
preserving the rich biodiversity of the region and ensuring the well-being of the local
communities that depend on them for their livelihoods. It is imperative that efforts are
made to protect and preserve these valuable ecosystems for future generations to enjoy
and benefit from. Hence, we need to protect them at any cost.
