 The Eastern Ghats stretch from the ____________ to the Nigiris in the south

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Mahanadi Valley.

Actually, the Eastern Ghats do not extend all the way to the Nilgiris. The Eastern Ghats stretch from the Mahanadi Valley in the north to the Nilgiri Hills in the south. The Nilgiri Hills are part of the Western Ghats range, which runs parallel to the Eastern Ghats but lies to the west. So, the correct statement is:

The Eastern Ghats stretch from the Mahanadi Valley to the Nilgiris in the south.
