Mountain range confined to one state — UPSC Prelims PYQ 1995

Which mountain range is spread over only one State?

  1. Aravalli
  2. Satpura
  3. Ajanta
  4. Sahyadri

Explanation

Option (c) is correct
  • The Ajanta Range is a short hill range entirely confined to Maharashtra. In contrast, the Aravalli Range extends from Delhi to Gujarat, the Sahyadri (Western Ghats) passes through multiple states, and the Satpura Range also spans more than one state. Hence, Ajanta is the only range among the options that is limited to a single state.
Answer: (c) Ajanta
