Solution

The correct option is B The Peninsular Plateau

The peninsular plateau is considered to be one of the most stable land blocks. It was formed due to the breaking and drifting of the Gondwana Land. This plateau contains igneous and metamorphic rocks. Geographically, the Deccan plateau is known as one of the most ancient landmasses.
