Which factor mainly contributes to the broken nature of the Eastern Ghats?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Cutting by peninsular rivers

The governing geographical concept is the difference between continuous and discontinuous mountain systems. The Eastern Ghats are not one unbroken wall because several major peninsular rivers, including the Mahanadi, Godavari, Krishna and Cauvery, have cut valleys and gaps through them on their way to the Bay of Bengal. Therefore, option A correctly explains their broken nature. Glaciers do not shape this tropical peninsular range in the manner suggested by option B, while desert sand and coral reefs have no role in forming these inland hills. The Western Ghats, by comparison, are more continuous.
