Which of the following peaks is NOT located in the Himalayan mountains?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Kalsubai.

Kalsubai is not located in the Himalayan mountains. It is the highest peak in Maharashtra, situated in the Western Ghats, with an elevation of about 1,646 meters. In contrast, Nanda Devi and Kamet are prominent peaks in the Indian Himalayas, while Annapurna is a famous mountain massif in the Nepalese Himalayas. Kalsubai is known for its trekking routes and panoramic views, but geographically, it belongs to the Sahyadri range, not the Himalayas. Therefore, among the given options, Kalsubai is the correct answer.
