SSC MTS 2024 PYQ — Question 57

The correct answer is  option 1  i.e. The Tibetan Plateau.

The Tibetan Plateau is NOT a physiographic division of India. It lies to the north of the Indian subcontinent, primarily within China. India's main physiographic divisions include the Northern Mountains (Himalayas), the Northern Plains, the Peninsular Plateau, the Indian Desert, the Coastal Plains, and the Islands. These divisions are based on geological structure, terrain, and physical features. While the Himalayas form the northern boundary of India and are adjacent to the Tibetan Plateau, the plateau itself is outside Indian territory and is therefore not considered part of India's physiographic structure. It is the world's highest and largest plateau.
