Solution

The correct option is B Peninsular plateau
  • At one point of time, all the landmass on Earth was united as one mega continent called Pangea and whole water bodies were also unified called Panthalassa.
  • After that, the Pangea got bifurcated into the northern part as Laurasia and southern part as the Gondwanaland.
  • Peninsular India was part of Gondwanaland which moved northwards to unite with rest of India. Thus the right answer is B.
