Solution

The correct option is C The Deccan Plateau
The highlighted portion of the Indian map denotes the Deccan Plateau. It lies to the south of the Narmada River, with the Satpura Range acting as its base in the north. The Western Ghats and the Eastern Ghats mark the edges of the Deccan Plateau. The Satpura Range flanks its broad base in the north. Towards its eastern extension, lie the Mahadev Hills and the Kaimur Hills which are found in Madhya Pradesh and the Maikal range which is found in Chhattisgarh.
