Solution
The correct option is B Aravalli
Among the Himalayas, Aravalli, Nilgiris, and Vidhyachal mountain ranges, the Aravalli Range is an eroded stub of ancient mountains. It is the oldest of the mountain ranges in India. The natural history of the Aravalli Range is traced back to times when the Indian Plate was separated from the Eurasian Plate because of an ocean.
