The correct answer is option 3 - a land between two rivers. The term "Doab" refers to a region that is formed by the confluence of two rivers. This term is commonly used in the Indian subcontinent to describe the fertile land between two major rivers. The word "Doab" consists of two parts: "Do" meaning two, and "ab" meaning water or river. Therefore, a Doab is a geographical area that is surrounded by two rivers, often characterized by rich and fertile soil. This land is highly valuable for agriculture and settlement, as it offers access to water from both rivers. Examples of Doabs include the Punjab Doab, formed by the rivers Beas and Sutlej, and the Ganges-Yamuna Doab, formed by the rivers Ganges and Yamuna.
