Which of the following mountain ranges in Peninsular India separates the Narmada River basin from the Tapti River basin?
A. Vindhya Range
B. Satpura Range✓ Correct Answer
C. Aravalli Range
D. Ajanta Range
💡 Solution & Explanation
The Satpura Range is a prominent block mountain system in central India that forms a natural watershed dividing the westward-flowing Narmada and Tapti river basins. Other ranges like the Vindhyas lie further north of the Narmada valley rather than between the two rivers. Peninsular river systems and their structural valley orientations frequently appear in geographical physical mapping questions.
