Which is the outer and southernmost range of the Himalayas?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Shiwalik

Option C is correct because the Shiwalik, also called the Outer Himalaya, is the southernmost and lowest of the three parallel Himalayan ranges. It lies at the foothills, south of the Himachal or Lesser Himalaya, and is made largely of relatively young, unconsolidated sediments brought down by rivers. The Himadri is the highest and northernmost main Himalayan range, while Himachal occupies the middle position. Karakoram is a separate very high mountain system lying farther north-west and is not the outer southern belt of the Himalayas. The positional clue—outer, foothill and southernmost—therefore identifies the Shiwalik.
